Cape Town - Law enforcement officers and the abalone poachers were involved in a game of 'hide and seek' until in the early hours of Tuesday morning along the Atlantic Seaboard, after officers received a tip. City law enforcement members in the CBD, as well the marine and environmental unit officers, responded to a complaint of poaching last night. Law enforcement spokesperson Wayne Dyason said poachers were spotted in the water and vehicles associated with their activities were also identified. "A game of hide and seek ensued between the officers and the poachers until along Beach road in the early hours of the morning (after) the officers noticed suspicious activity along the Sea Point promenade." "They observed one male suspect loading heavy items into a vehicle and then driving away in a hurry. They followed the vehicle, which was travelling at high speed out of Sea Point," Dyason said.
