E-hailing ride turns into fatal robbery in Wentworth
A manhunt's been launched for two suspects, including a teen girl who was allegedly part of a group that robbed an e-hailing driver in the south of Durban.
It's understood that the 17-year-old requested a ride from the e-hailing company in Wentworth on Sunday.
Police spokesperson Thenjiswa Ngcobo says when the driver arrived to pick her up, he found that she was accompanied by three other suspects.
