NORTH WEST police said they have re-arrested a fugitive Danon Kruger in Lichtenburg on Sunday at around 1am. Kruger allegedly escaped from lawful custody three weeks ago. North West police spokesperson, Col Sabata Mokgwabone said the suspect was detained for two business burglary cases.

“The alleged crimes were both committed in March 2014 and 2016 respectively in Lichtenburg. The accused was re-arrested while trying to get out of town. Police worked together with neighbourhood watch and arrested the suspect. He is expected to appear in the Lichtenburg Magistrate’s Court on May 3,” he said.

Provincial police commissioner, Lieutenant General Baile Motswenyane commended the Lichtenburg neighbourhood watch and the police for their cooperation that led to the arrest.
