Two women shot and killed while travelling on a passenger bus
Two women were shot dead while they were in a bus on their way from Pretoria to Harare in Zimbabwe.
Police spokesperson in Limpopo, Motlafela Mojapelo, says the suspects boarded bus, pretending to be passengers.
However, they forced the driver to pull over in the early hours of Thursday morning.
“As the bus passed Mantsole weigh bridge along the N1 road, one of the suspects allegedly produced a firearm and shot through the front windscreen, forcing the driver to pull over.
“The other suspects shot three women, instantly killing two and critically injuring the other.
“All other passengers were then ordered to disembark and lie on the ground. They were thereafter robbed of their belongings, including cash, cellphones and passports. The suspects were thereafter allegedly picked up by another motor vehicle that was apparently following the bus."
Limpopo police have launched a manhunt for the suspects.
