Man wanted for cop killing shot dead in Durban

Durban K-9 unit's Lindokuhle Goba was shot and killed before being robbed of his service pistol in Mayville on Saturday.

KZN police spokesperson Robert Netshiunda says a team comprising of police and the Hawks were investigating the whereabouts of the suspect on Tuesday morning. Netshiunda says their investigations first took them to a hospital where two men had been privately admitted. He says one suspect died at the hospital, while the other discharged himself and escaped from the hospital ward.

“Thorough investigation by the police identified a house in Inanda where the suspect was cornered. After the police had introduced and identified themselves as men of law, the suspect responded with a hail of bullets and a shootout ensued. During the shootout the suspect was fatally wounded.Jacaranda FM
