Johannesburg – A man was arrested for robbery and housebreaking in Nemago, Port Alfred, on Wednesday, Eastern Cape police said.

A Somalian saw the man with stolen groceries and clothing in a block of shacks in the informal settlement, said police spokesperson Luvuyo Mjekula.

He alerted the police, and police dog Misha found the man in one of the shacks.

The 32-year-old man was also wanted for stealing money during a housebreaking in the area last month, said Mjekula.

He was expected to appear in the Port Alfred Magistrate’s Court on Friday.
