“It was struggling to reverse from a building,” he added.<\/p>\n

“When the driver saw the police he abandoned the vehicle and tried to run away, but he was cornered and arrested.<\/p>\n

“The people in the shop where the truck was off-loading ran away, but one of them was cornered and arrested.”<\/p>\n

Two men aged 22 and 40 were finally arrested and taken into custody.<\/p>\n
