Damn, son. Talk about another hectic day on the job.
Following a house robbery up in Bedfordview, east of Johannesburg, a shootout between seven suspects and a SAPS provincial team was caught on dashcam by local resident Tyronne Branders.
The seven had stolen jewellery, television sets and other electrical goods from a house at Killoran Place, and had loaded the stash into the VW Caddy seen in the video, reports News24.
Soon after the shooting incident below, the suspects were apprehended “at a nearby Engen filling station on the corner of Van Buuren and Kloof roads, after the VW Caddy lost control”.
Although one suspect managed to flee the scene, “one of the six arrested led police to a safe house in Kelvin, where officers seized five handguns, an R5 rifle, three stolen vehicles and jewellery”:
The six are believed to be part of a gang possibly linked to further house robberies in the upmarket suburbs.
“The house in Kelvin is the suspect’s house. Police will work around the clock to make sure that these gang members are exposed regarding all crimes they had committed,” said Gauteng SAPS spokesperson, Lieutenant Colonel Lungelo Dlamini.
“The SAPS provincial task team members are questioning the six gang members.”
