A Durban, South Africa resident was
lucky to escape unharmed after a neighbour fired shots at several suspects that
hit their house on Sunday night.
Blue Security community and media
liaison officer Andreas Mathios said armed response officers responded to he
resident’s home in Chester Road after the shots were fired at about 8.30pm.
“A neighbour in Alpine Road had
allegedly fired several shots at suspects and the bullets hit his neighbour's
property, damaging his balcony and kitchen sliding door. A bullet was later recovered
in the kitchen. Fortunately no one was injured during the shooting,” Mathios
said.
Mayville SAPS attended the scene of
the shooting.
Meanwhile a gang member was
accidentally shot in the neck by his fleeing accomplices during an armed
robbery in Verulam on Monday night. He was subsequently stoned to death by
the local community.
It is alleged that a group of armed
men had gone into a tuck shop in Hazelmere Road where they robbed the business
owner. Two residents walked into the tuck shop during the robbery and the
robbers fired at them.
Prem Balram of Reaction Unit South
Africa said: “One was shot in the arm while the second was shot in the
buttocks. The two managed to drive to our offices. Paramedics treated them
while our reaction officers went to the scene.
"They found the suspect dead.
It is alleged that he was seriously injured after he was accidentally shot in
the neck by his accomplices. The community then stoned the critically injured
suspect to death,” Balram said.
A 9mm was found near the deceased.
