GAUTENG. – A man has been arrested in Pretoria following an alleged serious incident of domestic violence after security personnel located him at a nearby business premise.
ProShield Security says its response officers were called to the scene on one October after a complaint was received through one of the company's WhatsApp groups. The company says a man allegedly assaulted members of his family and subsequently fled the scene on foot.
Response officers began searching for him and his description was circulated to relevant community groups. The suspect was later found hiding at a nearby business, according to ProShield. Police were called and he was handed over to police and taken to the police station, where a case was opened.
ProShield says the incident highlights the importance of reporting serious crimes early so that help can be provided as quickly as possible.
