According to the police, witness reports indicate that the deceased allegedly heard a commotion from another room in the same yard. A group of five armed robbers were allegedly robbing a neighbour who also operates a tuck shop.
“It is alleged that immediately after they robbed the tuck shop owner, three shots were fired from outside and that was where the victim was found lying, in the early hours of 26 April with a gunshot wound in his upper back. His room was ransacked and his phone is missing,” said the spokesperson for Ivory Park Police Station, Captain Bernard Matimulane.
