Norkem Park SAPS members are on a manhunt for an alleged Esselen Park murderer, who shot his victim six times on December 10.
According to Capt Lesibana Molokomme, spokesperson for the station, suspect and RDP housing resident Simon Mkhululi Monakali had an argument with neighbours when the incident occurred on the corner of 40th and 45th streets.
“[Monakali] took out a firearm and shot a male victim six times,” Molokomme told Express on Tuesday.
The victim was declared dead on scene by paramedics. Police also found cartridges and live ammunition. A warrant for Monakali’s arrest was issued by the Kempton Park Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday.
“The suspect has since been nowhere to be found. Information suggests that he may be in Luyengweni in the Eastern Cape,” Molokomme added,
Anyone with information is urged to contact D/Cst Miyelani Mashautane on 078 725 4405 or office numbers 011 391 1814/5.
