Suspects in police uniforms gun down EL security guard

File


East London police are searching for two gunmen in police uniforms who gunned down a security officer during an apparent attempt to rob the Gonubie Post Office on Tuesday.

Police spokesperson, Warrant Majola, Nkohli, said two men wearing police uniforms entered the Post Office at around 10 AM.

He said when they tried to gain access beyond the security gate, the 45-year-old security officer on site refused them access and was then fatally shot.

Nkohli said the men stole his firearm and fled in a getaway car which was recovered in Sandy Springs. 

A plastic bag containing police uniforms was also seized. 

Police are urging anyone with information that could lead to the arrest of the suspects to contact the nearest police station.
