Proofreading
Mr Jones, a businessman who had just retired, was arrested yesterday while he was having a delicious breakfast at Marti’s in Pinelands. He was arrested for stealing R600 000 from his employee. He stole the money because of financial problems he was facing. His wife said that he had been very nervous of late.
A violent scuffle broke out took place while he was being arrested by a policeman, but not much damage was done. Mr Jones was seen to be waving his hands above his head. He did not want to be arrested. He was taken to prison in chains in the police van.
Captain James Smith is the investigating officer in charge of the investigation.
