Police warn looters in Port Elizabeth


 
Eastern Cape police management has issued a warning against communities, to refrain from looting and setting fire to Somali-owned shops in Port Elizabeth.

Provincial police spokesperson, Brigadier Marinda Mills, issued a statement on Sunday evening following the weekend's unrest in New Brighton and KwaZakhele.

The trouble started after a 30-year-old man was shot dead in New Brighton.

He was allegedly involved in an altercation with a shop owner over air time.

Mills says the public order policing unit is patrolling the affected areas.
