A local ADT reaction officer put an end to a burglary recently when he interrupted the criminals.<\/p>\n

The incident took place on April 13 at about 6am when a man gained access to a business property in Power Street, Germiston South, by jumping over the pre-cast wall.<\/p>

He then broke the drywall to gain entry to the office building, which triggered the alarm.<\/p>\n

ADT reaction officer Christopher Sibiya was dispatched to the scene and on arrival found the suspect still on the premises.<\/p>

The suspect fled the scene without stealing anything.<\/p>\n

Clive Humphrey, managing director of ADT central region, applauded Sibiya’s prompt response to the alarm activation, which resulted in the burglar having to flee the scene.<\/p>\n

“This just emphasises the importance of always ensuring the alarm is armed when you leave the premises,” he said.<\/p>\n
