Gqeberha police have arrested a 28-year-old woman in connection with the murder of a 41-year-old man in Humewood.
Spokesperson Captain Sandra Janse van Rensburg says the suspect was arrested on Friday and is expected to appear in court on Monday.
It is alleged that last Saturday afternoon, on 21 December 2024, the deceased, Lungisa Xhwegwa, was at his home in Cranwell Drive, Humewood Extension.
Captain Janse van Rensburg said while Lungisa and a niece were busy in the kitchen, someone knocked at the door.
After they opened the door, the person asked for the deceased by name.
The deceased was then called outside and once they were outside, the suspect allegedly drew a firearm and shot Lungisa in the chest.
Captain Janse van Rensburg says as he attempted to flee from the suspect, he was followed by the suspect who fired three more shots at him. Lungisa died on the scene.
Anyone with information is asked to contact their nearest police station.
