Man arrested for shooting ‘wife’ outside Westville school
Updated | By Gcinokuhle Malinga
A man who's alleged to have shot a woman believed to be his wife outside a school in Westville is in custody.

"Reports indicate that the woman was walking on Lawrence Drive in Berea West when the suspect attempted to run her over with his car. It was then reported he failed to hit her so he got out and fired gunshots at her before speeding off,” says KZN police spokesperson Robert Netshiunda.
The woman, who's in her sixties, survived after being shot multiple times and was taken to hospital in a critical condition.
Netshiunda says police tracked down the suspect hours later.
"Police responded swiftly and through quick information sharing, the suspect's vehicle was intercepted in Pietermaritzburg and he was arrested."
Netshiunda says he faces a charge of attempted murder and will appear in court soon.
