A safe
has been stolen from the exhibit room of the Alberton police station.
Lieutenant
colonel Lungelo Dlamini said the theft was discovered when the exhibit clerk
reported for duty this morning.
It was
either stolen last night, or early today.
“It is
alleged that there was a break-in, where the main door and the burglar [bars]
were damaged,” Dlamini said.
“The
safe was then dragged out of the office and stolen. It is unknown what type of
vehicle was used by the suspect(s) to remove the safe, but it may not fit into
a sedan vehicle.
“At this
stage, an audit is still being done at the exhibit room to establish the exact
contents of the safe,” he said.
