This morning, at approximately 06h00, the Marshall Security Special Operations Team (SOT) was activated by Tracker SA to assist with a white Volkswagen Polo that had been stolen in the Pinetown area. Acting on the information provided, our SOT members immediately responded to the scene in KwaMashu, where they discovered the stolen vehicle concealed behind houses just off Nyala Road.
As our members approached, they observed a suspect inside the car, actively stripping the vehicle. The suspect was swiftly apprehended. Upon further inspection, numerous number plates were found next to the vehicle, all linked to other stolen vehicles.
SAPS KwaMashu was contacted and arrived promptly for further investigation. The suspect and the stolen vehicle were taken to the police station for processing and additional inquiries.
We extend our sincere gratitude to Tracker SA for providing crucial real-time intelligence and to SAPS KwaMashu for their rapid support. This collaborative effort showcases our continued commitment to safeguarding the community and ensuring that no car theft suspect goes unchecked.
