The police reported that on December 24 at about 22:30 a man was found dead with a shot wound.
The 25-year-old victim was driving a white Ford Bantam with a friend to the open field to meet his girlfriend. Four unknown men approached them, demanded money and he attempted to drive off with his car.
A shot was fired when the victim tried to escape and it caught the driver on his right shoulder, but he continued driving until the car fell into a hole in that area and could not go further.
The victim could not move or respond to his friend and he noticed blood from his shoulder as well as on the seat.
Police were summoned to the scene and no one was arrested then. Detective Sergeant Tholane Mahlangu is investigating the murder case and anyone with information can call him: 071 401 6360 or office telephone number: 013 659 8447 or dial toll free number 08600 10111.
