Police foil heist at forensic building

A police officer has been injured in a daring attempted heist in Pretoria.
Two suspects attacked a police forensic building in Silverton.
They were all dressed in police uniforms and held up officers on duty before tying them up.
Police say the heist was foiled and nothing was taken.
Parts of the building are used to store seized and confiscated drugs.
“The 12 suspects were travelling in a white Ford Ranger bakkie. The motive for the attempt to enter the building is under investigation. Police officers who were on patrol foiled the attempt to enter the building,” said police spokesperson Athlenda Mathe.
“During the confrontation one member, a constable, was shot and wounded during the attack. He has been taken to hospital for medical care. Nothing was taken and stolen from the building.
“The SAPS has set aside R25-million this financial year for security upgrades at all its buildings nationwide.”
