Johannesburg - Four more stolen vehicles were found in a warehouse in the Vaal Triangle, south of Johannesburg on Thursday, police said.
Constable Teboho Lephoto said they found three cars and a truck in a warehouse in Meyerton following a tip-off. They arrested a 20-year-old security guard on the premises for being in possession of stolen goods.
A Ford bakkie, a Toyota Hilux, a Toyota Corolla and a Mitsubishi truck confirmed to have been recently hijacked in Ekurhuleni, were found parked in the warehouse. The truck was loaded with potato chips.
The guard would appear in the Meyerton Magistrate's Court on Friday.
The find came a day after police found 50 cars, of which some had been confirmed stolen, 10 firearms, commercial explosives used in automated teller machine bombings and a number of hand and stun grenades in a house in Eikenhof on Wednesday.
Two men were taken in for questioning.
