TimesLIVE reports that Gauteng police have arrested a suspect after the discovery of a cloned police vehicle believed to have been used in a spate of truck hijackings and courier vehicle robberies in the province.
According to police spokesperson Col Noxolo Kweza, a 44-year-old suspect was arrested in Walkerville, Sedibeng district, after a cloned police vehicle was discovered on a property there. She said an intelligence-driven operation by Johannesburg Crime Intelligence and Soweto K9 unit members led to the recovery of a cloned marked Volkswagen Golf with police registration number plates and police call signs; a white VW Polo fitted with blue lights and sirens; a stolen R5 rifle and police reflector jackets; and several SAPS number plates. Kweza said the suspect might be linked to robberies in Gauteng, and more arrests could be made as the investigation continued. The suspect is expected to appear in court soon.
