Three men were arrested on Wednesday at Walvis Bay, after the Namibian Police Force (NamPol) received information that suspects driving a rental VW Polo Vivo planned a cash-in-transit robbery against a security services company.
According to Erongo NamPol’s Inspector Ileni Shapumba, it is alleged that the police spotted a white VW Polo Vivo vehicle at a shopping parking area at Rikumbi Kandanga Road, Walvis Bay.
“When the police officers approached the vehicle, the suspects sped off, heading to Kuisebmond, but were allegedly found in Hebron Street, Kuisebmond, and arrested,” Shapumba said.
The three male suspects arrested are Namibian, aged 30, 34, and 31 years of age.
It is further alleged that three sets of number plates were found hidden near the VW Polo Vivo that was driven by the suspects.
Police investigations into the matter continue.
