Rizal, the perpetrator of the theft of a specialist in empty houses, has been arrested by residents in action at a luxury house on Jalan Jatinegara Barat, Jatinegara District, East Jakarta.

The suspect, who is a single player, was caught by residents around the location. The perpetrator, who realized that his actions had been known, had fled to the roof of an empty house to save himself.

However, the perpetrator's efforts failed. The perpetrators who had been surrounded by residents were arrested and had become the target of the mob's tantrums. Even residents who were annoyed also wanted to burn the perpetrators.

The theft was carried out by the perpetrator alone by breaking into the window of the empty house that the owner left.

"So the perpetrator was hiding (hidden) in the attic downstairs. Already entered (the house was empty), then assisted by Bimaspol. When he arrested, the perpetrator was in the attic of the house. (the perpetrator) had been taken to the Cawang Police (Jatinegara Police)," said the head of the local RT, Jumiati to reporters, Wednesday, March 6.

After being investigated, it turned out that the perpetrators were arrested by residents because a number of residents had been waiting for the theft incident. Previously, the perpetrator was suspected of having also committed similar theft in the area.

"There are reports of thieves often entering, this week in my neighborhood the incident of thieves continues," he said.

Currently, the perpetrators of the theft are still at the Jatinegara Police Headquarters for further investigation.
