EThekwini Central Cluster Trio Task Team members arrested two suspects on 24 January 2018 for possession of dangerous weapons.
Police were conducting an operation aimed at preventing criminal activities in the area especially on the highways.
Suspects were spotted leaning over the Queen Nandi Drive-Inanda Road bridge carrying a rock. When police pounced on them, they were found in possession of a knife, gloves and a rock. Suspects were immediately arrested and taken to Greenwood Park police station for detention.
