A 21 year old man was arrested by members of Reaction Unit South Africa after he was found in the home of his former employer on Dianthus Road in Brindhaven, Verulam today (Friday) .
At approximately 10:36 today (Friday) the RUSA Operations Center received a call from a female on the property requesting assistance after she noticed a man in her home. Upon arrival Reaction Officers penetrated the residence and apprehend the suspect hiding under a pile of clothes in one of the bedrooms.
It was established that the suspect was previously employed by the homeowner as a general worker. Today he entered the property and removed an outside tap which caused water to spray uncontrollably. A female who was in the house with a toddler opened the security gate to investigate the noise when the suspect entered the home undetected. When the female returned she noticed him in the house and locked him inside. She then contacted RUSA for assistance.
The uMshlasini Everest Heights resident was placed under arrest and handed over to Police for further investigation.
