Warrant Officer Richard Munyai, the Jeppe SAPS communications officer, said police officers were patrolling when they received a call about a shooting at the corner of Thames and Fuller streets in Bertrams.
“On their arrival, they found a security guard. The guard told them two men with firearms wanted to rob a man in China City,” said W/O Munyai.
The security guard and his colleague chased the men who shot at the guards. The guards shot back and apprehended one of the suspects.
“The suspect was found in a possession of a revolver with the serial number filed off. It had three live rounds. Six spent cartridges were found at the scene,” said W/O Munyai.
The man will appear in court soon.
