Three men have been arrested in Parow today (Friday 3 March) on multiple charges relating to house break-ins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This follows a police investigation into the activities of a crowbar gang involved in house robberies in the northern suburbs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to provincial police spokesperson Captain FC van Wyk, an upmarket vehicle, of which the number plates were often changed, was identified as being used in the commission of these crimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, shortly after 11:00 today various police units responded to information they received and traced the vehicle to a residence in Frans Conradie Drive in Parow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cUpon entering the house four men attempted to flee but were arrested by the police. Numerous stolen items including a police hand radio, flat screen televisions, bicycles and a substantial amount of cash, were seized,\u201d Van Wyk says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When police searched a BMW sedan on the premises, housebreaking implements consisting of a crowbar, a heavy duty hammer, a pick and gloves were recovered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Van Wyk says the suspects \u2013 three men aged 27, 37 and 42 as well as the occupant of the residence, aged 41, are being detained and are to appear in the Bellville Magistrate\u2019s Court on Monday 6 March. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
