Man dies after being shot in luxury estate

Police say three men entered a house, and when the man in the house went to investigate, he was shot.


A man has apparently died after being shot in his home in the luxury Dunblane Lifestyle and Equestrian Estate in Benoni, on the East Rand, early this morning.

 

The Ekurhuleni Central Cluster commander Major-General Poobalan Subbiah said details of the crime (the estate is on the Marister/Bredell border) were sketchy as this stage, Benoni City Times reported.

He said initial reports suggest three men entered the house.

When a man in the house went to investigate, he was shot.

Social media reports indicate he was taken to hospital in a private vehicle, but later died in theatre.

More to come.
