Two suspects were arrested by Paarl police after they allegedly tried to illegally gain access to a farm residence on Sonstraal Road.
“We received a call from the farm asking for assistance just after 2am on Tuesday 24 May 2022. The caller described an unknown person trying to cut through the burglar bars to get into the residence,” says Warren Cassisa, Paarl branch manager for Fidelity ADT.
Two armed response vehicles were sent to investigate. Cassisa says the officers noticed two unidentifed men running away from the farm in the direction of the N1.
“Our officers gave chase and managed to apprehend both suspects before they could escape. They were detained and handed over into police custody. The homewoner also opened a case of trespassing against the suspects.”
