Team work between the Primrose police and a local security guard led to the arrest of two men.<\/p>\n

\"These<\/a>
These two men, seen here with Joseph Mdanda, were recently arrested for stealing copper cable.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The suspects were arrested in Johan Rissik Street, in connection with the theft of R12 000 worth of copper cable.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

The arrest was made when the security guard received a report of an alarm going off in Johan Rissik Street and, on arrival, noticed a moving manhole cover.<\/p>\n

When he opened the manhole he discovered two men still in the possession of the copper cable.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

The security guard arrested the men and called the Primrose police to come and collect them.<\/p>\n

He handed over the men, who were taken to the Primrose Police Station, where they were formally charged.<\/p>\n

They later appeared in the Germiston Magistrates Court, where their case was postponed for trial.<\/p>\n
