Two men were held by officers of the Central Division after being found in possession of a quantity of cables belonging to the Telecommunications Services of Trinidad and Tobago (TSTT).

Officers responding to a report of larceny of TSTT cables in the Tabaquite area on Saturday, intercepted a silver Nissan AD wagon, with four suspects, in the Gran Couva district.

Two men managed to elude capture when the vehicle was stopped but two others were arrested.

 A search of the vehicle resulted in officers finding a quantity of cables in the trunk, which were ascertained to be the property of TSTT.

The men, a 21-year-old of Laventille and a 28-year-old of Biche, were arrested in connection with the incident.
