Two burglars go potty

MARLBORO - Two suspects aged 21 and 32 were arrested for theft in Marlboro by the Bramley police.

Warrant Officer Moses Maphakela, spokesperson for the Bramley Police said the two suspects were apprehended by police officers while they were running away from the scene of the crime.

Maphakela said the suspects were seen carrying pots and pans outside of a house. “The owner of the house was home when she went to the bathroom and saw the suspects from the window,” explained Maphakela. “The suspects were in her yard throwing the pots and pans over the wall.”

He said the owner of the house alerted her neighbour who then chased the suspects.

Maphakela said the suspects had stolen three pots, two baking pans, a bucket and a paraffin stove from the storeroom of the house. However, all items were recovered by the police.

The two suspects were detained at the Bramley Police Station and will appear in court soon.
