You know despite the fact that crime continues to be a big issue in South Africa, sometimes a story comes out that makes you feel like police are actually trying. A story like this:

A man wanted for a cash-in-transit heist in Brackenhurst, Alberton, was arrested on Sunday, said Ekurhuleni metro police spokesperson Inspector Jimmy Maboko.

Metro police were stopping cars at random while monitoring the funeral procession of an alleged cash heist kingpin in the Katlehong township near Germiston.

While checking people through the morpho-touch fingerprinting machine, it emerged the 27-year-old was wanted in connection with the heist.

Now that’s the kinda cajone’s we need. Give whoever organised that operation a promotion!
