Swift Multi-Unit Response Leads to Successful Arrests

At approximately 19:32, the Blue Security Command Centre received a report of a housebreaking in progress at a residential property in the Seaview area. Three Blue Security Armed Response Officers were immediately dispatched to investigate.

Upon arrival, Armed Response members conducted a rapid assessment of the premises and successfully apprehended one suspect who was attempting to escape through the ceiling. Further information indicated that a second suspect was still inside the property; however, the individual could not be located during the initial search.

Tactical and K9 Deployment    

The Tactical Command Centre escalated the response and deployed the Blue Security Tactical Unit together with the Blue K9 Unit to assist. The K9 Unit conducted a thorough and systematic search of the premises, resulting in the successful detection and apprehension of the second suspect, who was found hiding in the roof space.

Both suspects were safely removed from the property and placed under arrest without incident.
