Jan Kempdorp-Two police Constables were arrested last night by a team of police units(Hartswater Crime Intelligence and Protection Services, Kimberley Crime Combating Unit, Detectives from Jan Kempdorp and the National Prosecuting Authority Northern Cape) in a planned operation whereby information was received that a shop in the area was going to be broken into during the night.
“In a carefully planned operation, the team set a trap to catch the alleged suspects” lieutenant Donald Mdhluli said.
Undercover police officials laid in wait inside the shop for the suspects.
“At about 23:30, police inside the shop heard voices on the roof and alarm wires were cut. At about 01:30, this morning noises could be heard once again” Mdhluli said.
The shop was allegedly broken into and police swooped in on the suspects.
Police said four suspects (two civilians) were arrested.
A fleeing suspect was shot in his leg by police.
He was taken to hospital for treatment.
“They were detained on charges of House breaking(business) and possession of unlicensed firearm. “A 38 revolver was confiscated and are expected to appear in the Jan Kempdorp Magistrates’ Court tomorrow” he said.
The matter will be further investigated by the Independent Police Investigative Directorate (IPID).-TDN
