Five suspected criminals in KwaZulu-Natal have been killed during another police shootout in the province.
Officers said the group, allegedly linked to murder and robbery cases, was found in Cato Crest near the Durban CBD on Tuesday night.
The police said they’ve been tracking the suspects for quite some time.
This latest takedown involves suspected criminals who were wanted in connection with four murder cases, thirteen robberies, and one carjacking.
Police said they found the gang in a rented house in Cato Crest, where they resisted arrest.
The police’s Robert Netshiunda explained how officers acted: “When police announced their presence, the suspects opened fire towards the law enforcement officers through the windows.
“A shootout ensued and after the ceasefire, five suspects were found to have sustained fatal gunshot wounds.”
Netshiunda said an AK-47 assault rifle, three pistols, and drugs were found in the possession of the suspects.
