KZN police spokesperson Colonel Thembeka Mbele said additional teams have been deployed to the area in an effort to curb gang and drug-related crime.
“It is alleged that yesterday at 12.15, a 38-year-old e-hailing driver was shot and killed by two unknown suspects while in Tifflin Road in Wentworth. It is reported that the victim was also robbed of his licensed firearm. The matter is still under investigation,” Mbele said.
Meanwhile, police have arrested a fourth suspect in connection with a drive-by shooting that claimed the life of 15-year-old Jaron Jacobs in June this year. Mbele said the 21-year-old's lawyer then handed him over to police after he evaded arrest in June and a warrant of arrest was issued.
