Traffic officer gunned down in PE


A provincial traffic officer has been gunned down and killed in the driveway of his home in Ikamvalihle in Motherwell, Port Elizabeth.

Provincial Traffic Spokesperson Charles Bramwell says the 45 year-old officer was shot six times from behind as he opened his gate after arriving home just after ten o'clock on Sunday night.

He was then shot a further two times in the head and died on the scene.

The deceased has been identified by Police as Mzwamadoda Khuphiso.

Bramwell says the motive for the cold-blooded killing of the officer had not yet been established but that his service pistol had been taken by his attackers.
