Incident Report:

On the above date and time, ProShield Security received a call from a valued client, Astron Fuel, reporting that suspects previously involved in multiple shoplifting incidents at the premises had returned to the store.

The complainant maintained visual observation of the suspects and informed responding members that the suspects had once again stolen merchandise before leaving the scene in a white Ford Ranger double cab, travelling along Zambesi Drive towards Lavender Road.

Acting swiftly on the information received, responding members coordinated efforts and successfully located the suspect vehicle on Rosslyn Road. A professional and efficient vehicle stop was conducted, resulting in the apprehension of all three suspects without incident or injury.

The suspects were subsequently handed over to SAPS and transported to Pretoria North SAPS for further investigation and processing. The recovered property included the recently stolen items as well as additional clothing suspected to be stolen from other locations.

All three suspects will be profiled and investigated further, as they may be linked to additional theft-related cases within the area.
