Dawn Park SAPS is appealing to residents for help locating two suspects linked to house robberies in the area. Police have warned that the suspects may be armed and dangerous. Residents are urged not to approach them.
Police say the suspects operate between 4pm and 9pm. During this time, they allegedly target houses with open or unlocked gates and burglar doors. Their mode of transport is unknown.
One suspect reportedly walks with a limp, while another reportedly has a facial scar and one eye. Dawn Park SAPS supplied 11 Bushbuck Media with a photograph of one suspect, identified by police as Richmore, and authorised its publication as part of the appeal.
