In one of the house robberies, the suspects gained entry through a window that had been left open for the cat to get in and out.

Two cases of house robbery in separate suburbs are being investigated by the Honeydew Police.
Spokesperson for the station, Captain Balan Muthan, stated that the incidents, one each in Cosmo City and Randpark Ridge, happened a day apart.
In the early hours of 19 June, a couple was robbed by three suspects, one wielding a gun, at their home in Cosmo City. “They were awoken by the sound of the door being kicked by the suspects. The suspects told them to lie down, covered them with a blanket and made off with a television and two cellphones,” said Muthan.
The next day, 20 June, a house was robbed at 4.30am in Randpark Ridge, while the victim, who was left with bruises, was asleep. According to Muthan, the victim had left her lounge window open for her cat. This allowed the criminals to gain entry into the house, after scaling the wall around the property. “The suspects told the complainant they wanted cash and jewellery,” Muthan explained.
Muthan added that the suspects came across a laptop bag and took two laptops, two cellphones and a quantity of jewellery before fleeing the scene.
No vehicles were seen, and no shots were fired during either incident.
