A fourth suspect managed to escape.

Quick-thinking police officers arrested three suspects who allegedly robbed a Food Lover’s Market outlet in Pretoria on Wednesday morning.

Police spokesperson Brigadier Mathapelo Peters said members of the Tshwane flying squad were on a routine patrol in the Rooihuiskraal area in the early hours of Wednesday morning when they spotted a number of men running toward a Toyota Quantum minibus that was parked on Old Johannesburg Road. “The members immediately stopped and searched the vehicle. They recovered a variety of housebreaking implements and plastic bags containing food items from Food Lover’s Market. Also found in the vehicle, was a cash box belonging to the G4S security company.

“The police also found gloves and a loaded pistol with its serial number filed off. As soon as the members realised that the men could have committed a business robbery, a vehicle was dispatched to the nearby Food Lover’s Market, where the police found the security guards tied up, thus confirming the suspicion of a business robbery,” said Peters.

“Investigations will continue to establish a possible link to other business robberies or any other crimes. Police management in Gauteng has commended the vigilance of the officers whose efforts will go a long way in ridding the streets of criminals.”
