The Primrose police recently arrested two men, aged 21 and 37 years old respectively, for possession of house break-in implements.<\/p>\n
The arrests were made in Rietfontein Road in Primrose at 12.15am when the patrolling officers were stopped by local security guards.<\/p>
\u201cThe guards reported that the shop they worked at had been broken into,\u201d said Sgt Styles Maome, communications officer for the Primrose police.<\/p>\n
With the information given by the guards, officers began to patrol the area in search of the suspects.<\/p>
\u201cThey soon noticed the two men and stopped them.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhile searching the men, police found a screwdriver and big knife in their possession,\u201d said Maome.<\/p>\n
The police officers became even more suspicious when the suspects could not give a clear explanation as to why they were walking around so late at night, where they were heading or where they had come from.<\/p>\n
They were arrested and taken to the Primrose Police Station.<\/p>\n
They have since appeared in the Germiston Magistrate\u2019s Court, where their case was postponed for plea and trial.<\/p>\n
