On the morning of 1 July 2025, SAPS in collaboration with E2 Partners responded swiftly to intelligence received regarding an attempted vehicle theft in Centurion CBD.
Acting on the information, team members located the targeted vehicle, which was found unoccupied. Surveillance was maintained on the scene until the suspects returned to the vehicle. A strategic takedown was executed, resulting in the successful apprehension of two suspects — both detained without incident or injury.
Further investigation revealed the vehicle was fitted with false license plates. Upon processing by LCRC (Local Criminal Record Centre), tools commonly used in vehicle theft were discovered inside the vehicle.
The suspects were taken into custody at Lyttelton SAPS. A full investigation is underway.
