Limpopo police spokesperson Moatshe Ngoepe says the suspects were tracked down after officers were informed of groceries stolen from a supermarket in the area.  

 

"Four suspects were arrested on the spot and a large amount of different assortment of groceries with the estimated value of over R100 000 were recovered inside the truck trailer, some which were already offloaded, were found inside the shop," said Ngoepe.  

 

He added the truck used in the crime was allegedly hijacked in Delmas.

 

The four suspects, aged between 27 and 33, are expected to appear before the Polokwane Magistrate's Court on Monday. 

 

More arrests are expected as a police manhunt for the remaining suspects is still underway.
