Cape Town Law Enforcement officers were bemused after they helped a woman chase down a man who had robbed her, only for them to discover that the skelm had stolen her dagga.
“Law Enforcement officers attached to the Anti-Land Invasion Reaction Unit responded to a complaint of members of the public being robbed on Delft Main Road and Olifant Street, Delft,” said Law Enforcement spokesman, Wayne Dyason.
“On arrival in Olifant Street, the officers observed a male being chased by a female. The officers joined the chase and apprehended him.’’
According to Dyason, the man was in possession of a white bag, which the officers assumed was the property of the female, who had chased after him.

“The officers opened the bag and found 10 parcels of dagga in the bag.
“The bemused officers turned to the suspect who said he robbed the female of the bag and was unaware of its content.”
Dyason said the officers subsequently arrested both parties and detained them at Delft SAPS.
