Kabokweni police are looking for suspects who tied up a teacher and stole two computers from WEM Private College.
According to Capt Shirley Nsimba, spokesperson of Kabokweni police, two armed men forcefully entered the school and broke into a room where a male teacher was sleeping at around 02:45 on Friday.
The suspects allegedly assaulted the teacher and demanded him to open the computer lab. “They also tied him up with a rope, leaving him in a separate room while they ransacked the computer lab, taking some of the electrical equipment to their car which was parked outside the school,” she said.

Nsimba added that the teacher managed to free himself and ran outside the school premises screaming for help.
“That was when the suspects left the lab, randomly shooting in the air as they were running towards their getaway vehicle. Two computers were stolen,” said Nsimba.
