Johannesburg - Pretoria's embassy unit police arrested three men and seized a police identity document, a firearm with the serial number filed off, counterfeit money and drugs early on Tuesday.

They made the find when they searched a car they had followed from Colbyn to the Engen Garage in Church Street, said inspector Katlego Mogale.

Inside it was the police identity document, the firearm, eight rounds of ammunition and drugs including magic mushrooms, crack cocaine, CAT, ecstasy and a date rape drug.

They also discovered R300 in counterfeit bank notes, R1 500 cash and 50 Zambian Kwacha, a laptop, memory stick, digital camera, 10 cellphones, syringes and other drug paraphernalia.

The three occupants of the car - two 25-year-old men and a 24-year-old - were arrested on the spot, said Mogale.

In a separate incident, the Lyttelton police tracing unit arrested a 26-year-old wanted for eight cases of housebreaking and two armed robberies, said Mogale.

She said the man had been cornered in Schoeman Street in the Pretoria CBD.

Mogale said police were investigating whether he was linked to other cases.
