Rocks, not a weapon anyone expects, ended a teacher's life a short walk from his front door, and Magamba residents have not stopped looking over their shoulders since.
Norman Guri taught at Mavhudzi High School. Someone crushed his skull with heavy stones and left him bleeding out in the Rusape suburb, with brain matter scattered across the ground where he fell. Police opened a case and are hunting whoever did it.
Lovemore Chifomboti, the Ward 4 councillor and chairman of Rusape Town Council, got there among the earliest arrivals. He described the scene as deeply upsetting, called Guri a decent man, and noted the guy ran a healthy horticulture setup right at his home. Nighttime foot traffic in the area has basically dried up because people are terrified.
His sister, Annah Guri, cannot process any of it. Her take was blunt, that robbers could have taken whatever they wanted and let him walk away alive. She said she'd never witnessed anything that brutal and wants arrests.
Officials planned to move the body to Harare for a postmortem.
