Crime

Atlas Security Armed Response Officers Bravo 17 and Bravo 119 swiftly apprehended a suspect in South End after receiving an urgent call from a client on Pier Street. The suspect was caught in the act of stealing fibre cables from a manhole outside the complex.
Upon arrival, our officers tracked down the individual, who was found in possession of the stolen cables. The client, impressed by the rapid response, was able to positively identify the suspect. A case was opened with SAPS, ensuring that the necessary legal action was taken.
Further investigation revealed that the suspect had accessed a manhole outside the complex to steal copper wiring. At the time of arrest, he was found with approximately three meters of copper wiring and a side cutter.
Atlas Security remains committed to safeguarding our community and acting decisively against crime. This arrest highlights the effectiveness of teamwork between our clients, response officers, and law enforcement in ensuring that criminals are held accountable.
