THE Namibian police in Oshana have warned the public to be alert after unknown suspects broke into Emvula Arms and Ammunition in Ongwediva and stole 13 pistols.<\/p>\n
Community Affairs Officer Warrant Officer Frieda Shikole said the break-in occurred between Tuesday around 17:30 and Wednesday around 08:00.<\/p>\n
Shikole said the suspects also got away with one Apple laptop, a jacket, ammunition and a cash amount yet to be determined.<\/p>\n
“It is alleged that the suspects used an unknown object to cut the roof of the building to gain entry and then used a cutting torch to open the strongroom door,” she said.<\/p>\n
She said if the firearms land in the wrong hands they will pose a great risk to the nation.<\/p>\n
The suspects are unknown at this stage and no recoveries have been made.<\/p>\n
