Breaking News: Councillor cheats death
A Democratic Alliance councillor escaped from the jaws of death when two men, wielding guns, broke into her house in the early hours of this morning.
Clr Nomsa Baba says when her granddaughter alerted her there were people getting into the house, she peeped through the curtain and saw two men wearing balaclavas.
One fired a shot in my direction and a bullet whizzed past my head and I locked myself in the toilet.
“Inside the house, they asked my granddaughter about my whereabouts. They were told that I jumped through the window and they took my plasma TV before disappearing into the darkness,” she said.
DA councillors, including the constituency chairperson, Clr Jaco Terblanche arrived at the scene shortly after 8am to give her support. A case has been opened at Tembisan Police Station.
