Yesterday afternoon, at approximately 14h00, Marshall Security’s Emergency Dispatch Centre received an alarm activation from a client’s business premises on Adrian Road in the Morningside area.
Marshall Security Armed Response Officers were immediately dispatched and arrived on the scene within minutes.
Upon arrival, officers spotted a suspect on the property inside one of the client’s vehicles, attempting to steal items after smashing the vehicle windows with a brick. The suspect was immediately apprehended on the scene.

Durban Central SAPS was contacted and arrived shortly thereafter to transport the suspect to the police station for processing.
This arrest underscores the value of rapid alarm response, on-scene vigilance, and strong collaboration between private security and SAPS. Marshall Security remains committed to protecting its clients, preventing loss, and ensuring that criminal activity is swiftly dealt with.
