Police locked up two security guards after a fatal shooting near DGL5 Mine in Bubi District left a 31-year-old man dead and another person wounded. Thabo Ngwenya got hit three times in the chest while walking past the mine to hit up a shop, and Nkosikhona Moyo caught a bullet in the arm after his mom sent him out for errands. Cops say the guards Mbekezele Mbeki and Elisha Mastwayi were beefing with miners who wanted their buddy released from detention for trespassing.
The community went absolutely wild after the shooting, blocking police from taking the body and burning tires at the mine entrance because they figured the whole thing would get buried. Zanu-PF Central Committee member Lot Mbambo eventually talked everyone down after hours of chaos. Commissioner Paul Nyathi is telling people to chill and let investigators do their thing instead of taking revenge into their own hands.
