Local troublemaker left for dead

A local drug addicted squatter and troublemaker was found dead.

The community of Mindalore is in shock after learning about the death of a local troublemaker last weekend.

The troublemaker had a reputation as a drug addict who caused fights in bars and taverns in the area on a regular basis.

The members of the Sector 9 Community Policing Forum (CPF) have also encountered his trouble making behaviour several times, since he and his family were squatting in a room where the old roadhouse in Mindalore used to be.

Furthermore he has been linked to several crimes around the Mindalore area and was later evicted from where they were squatting as the rooms were broken down to help eliminate crime.

The family then later found a caravan they parked in a field where they were living in.

The word on the street is that after the troublemaker was discharged from hospital over the weekend after he was injured in a bar fight, he continued his dodgy ways which possibly led to his death.

He was found near a block of flats where he was left for dead.

It is believed that he had eight stab wounds and one gunshot wound.

Locals say he was no stranger to the drug world, and has allegedly been stealing from Nigerian nationals for sometime now.

The News is meeting with his family soon to confirm the tragic details around his death and is also waiting for a official police statement.
