Cape Town - Police have arrested a 28-year-old house robber armed with a knife in Observatory.
Sergeant Hilton Malila said three men armed with knives broke into a house in Roman road and threatened the residents on Thursday.
When they showed reluctance to hand over their belongings, there was a struggle in which one of them was stabbed in his right hand.
Police later arrested one of the robbers and recovered a cellphone and MP3 player in his possession.
He was expected to appear in the Cape Town Magistrate's Court on Monday.
The other two robbers fled with a cellphone.
