Four suspects have been arrested in connection with the murder of a Cape Town Metro Police officer. The 30-year-old officer died after falling from a roof during a chase in Kensington.
He had been pursuing suspects involved in a business robbery when a struggle broke out.
Mayoral Committee Member for Safety and Security, JP Smith says live ammunition was found in the suspects’ vehicle.
Smith says the four are expected to appear in the Cape Town Magistrate’s Court on Monday on charges of murder, business robbery, and illegal possession of ammunition.
The city says it will oppose bail.
