Sea Point City Improvement District

🚨 GOOD CATCH BY THE CID TEAM 🚨 On the morning of Wednesday, 16 April, quick action by our SPCID patrol members led to the swift apprehension of a suspect following a vehicle break-in along the Beach Front. A motorist flagged down our team and reported that their vehicle had just been broken into outside of the SPCID area. With a clear description of the suspect, who had fled in the direction of Main Road , our team sprang into action. All patrol officers in both vehicles and on foot were notified and within minutes the suspect was spotted by an officer and detained. The suspect was, positively identified by both the victim and a witness, and handed over to SAPS, who carried out the arrest. The victims proceeded to the station to open a case. Heather Tager, COO of the Sea Point CID, praised the members for their swift response, and solid teamwork. Jacques Weber, Chairman of the SPCID, added: "What is particularly noteworthy is how many of our arrests involve suspects fleeing from incidents that happen outside the SPCID boundaries, only to be caught as they attempt to disappear through our Main Road zone. It speaks volumes about the visibility and effectiveness of our patrol presence." (Feed generated with FetchRSS)
