Two suspects killed in latest Inanda shootout
Updated | By Cliff Shiko
Two suspects were shot and killed during a gun battle with police in Inanda, north of Durban, on Friday morning.
The suspects, aged 34 and 39, were sought for the killing of three people in Newlands last week.
The latest shootout comes a day after six suspects were also killed during a violent confrontation with police in Inanda.
KwaZulu-Natal police spokesperson Robert Netshiunda says the suspects were found in possession of two pistols, a shotgun and 94 rounds of ammunition.
"A simultaneous operation at Eskebheni and Emaplazini in Inanda saw the police having to take cover from the suspects' gunfire.
"Police returned fire, sparking a shootout. After the shootout at both crime scenes, two suspects were found to have sustained fatal gunshot wounds. The search for more suspects continues."
