FeedbackA dedicated team of the local members was assembled and conducted a snap search operation at the identified location.
A further probe led the members to the suspect’s alleged accomplices in the area, and on arrival the suspect allegedly started shooting at the members who returned fire, fatally wounding him.
He was identified as Prince Dube from Bulawayo, Zimbabwe.
