Trapped house breaker appear in court

A 39-year-old, Lesego Tau, appeared in the Klerksdorp Magistrates’ Court on Monday, 11 May 2020, for housebreaking with the intent to commit an unknown crime.

According to North West police spokesperson Colonel Adéle Myburgh, Tau was arrested after he was allegedly caught by the homeowner when he got stuck while attempting to enter the house through a window.

“It is alleged that the homeowner – who went to bed at about 22:00 on Friday – was awoken by a strange noise and went to investigate,” Myburgh said.

“He was remanded in custody until his next court appearance on Friday for a formal bail application.”
