Media Statement WESTERN CAPE – Following numerous complaints of robberies involving cyclists and pedestrians who are robbed and injured at Lower Church Street and the N1 Highway, Woodstock police compiled an operational plan to deal with the situation at hand. A integrated operation between SAPS and other law enforcement agencies were conducted on Friday morning, 31 January 2025 which resulted in the arrest of several suspects. During this operation, 18 undocumented persons were arrested. The members conducted searches and arrested three suspects for the possession on drugs and one for the possession of a dangerous weapon. The suspects will appear in the Cape Town Magistrates’ court on Monday. These operations will continue to clamp down on the crime in the area. We appeal to the public to implement safety measures such as to keep valuable items out of site, walk in groups, be aware of their surroundings and report all criminal activities. Ends
