Limpopo police launched a manhunt for unknown suspects after two brothers were shot, one of them fatally, on the N1 between the Lehau and Mantsole weigh bridges in Limpopo on Monday evening.
It is alleged two brothers, aged 34 and 50, were travelling on the N1 South Freeway in a black Opel Corsa when their vehicle was hit by an unknown object next to Mantsole weigh bridge.
Police spokesperson Col Malesela Ledwaba said while changing the tyres, a group of people emerged from the bushes and started shooting at them.“They retaliated by shooting back and the suspects subsequently fled the scene without taking anything from them, but the two sustained injuries on the upper body,” he said.
