Suspects nabbed for attempted theft from police station

Police spokesperson Kay Makhubela says the suspects are aged between 28 and 33.

"It is alleged that sector members arrived at the Lenasia South SAPS at around midnight on Sunday and heard strange noises coming from the back of the offices where the firearm office is situated," says Makhubela.

"Police found one suspect trying to force open the security gate. He was arrested."

Makhubela says upon investigation two more suspects were arrested.

"Some of the office blocks were broken into at the entrance by the suspects through the unused back door. Nothing was taken," says Makhubela.

The suspects will appear in court soon on charges of attempted business burglary and malicious damage to property.
