A crime spree that played out earlier this week; ended in tears for a robber from Mpumalanga; who succumbed to his injuries in hospital; after he accidentally shot himself on the leg.
According to the spokesperson for the SAPS in Mpumalanga; Brigadier Selvy Mohlala; the deceased was part of a gang of assailants who went on a rampage while committing a business robbery and broke into several homes on a plot in Vosman; in Mpumalanga.
The deceased was part of a group that committed business robbery and broke into several homes on a plot in Vosman.
Mohlala revealed that the gang of thugs demanded cash and stole a white VW Jetta vehicle as well as a safe which had a firearm inside.
Mohlala said the gang shot and killed the car owner; following him untying himself during the robbery.
The deceased thug shot himself while reaching out for a wallet in the stolen vehicle; he accidentally shot himself in the leg.
