A resident from Ethiopia was shot and killed by two men as they tried to hijack his car in Esigubudu in Nongoma on Wednesday, KwaZulu-Natal police said.
“The man was attacked by two men who tried to hijack him. When they failed to move his car, they shot him and he died on the scene,” said Captain Vusi Mbatha.
A second Ethiopian managed to escape. The Ethiopian men were selling clothes in the area when they were attacked, he said.
“No arrests have been made. Police are working hard to track down the criminals,” Mbatha said.
