On May 1st, 2025, at approximately 13:30, a SNIPR alert was triggered by one of the Glenwood Urban Improvement Precinct (UIP) Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras. The system flagged a stolen white Toyota sedan, bearing registration number C#####ZN, entering the precinct.
Homeland Security’s Tactical Response Team (TRT) was immediately dispatched to locate the vehicle. Within minutes, the stolen car was identified on a well-known road in Glenwood. A call for backup was issued, and supporting units responded swiftly.
The Tactical Team conducted a safe approach and engaged the driver, who complied without resistance. The vehicle and suspect were then escorted to Umbilo SAPS for initial processing.
