Warrant Officer Hero Gambu says the 46-year-old allegedly shot and killed the 43-year-old woman near the Kloofsig train station earlier today.


After the couple argued yesterday evening, she went to sleep at a friend's house in Mamelodi. 


In the morning, the two friends left for work and took a train to Centurion. 


The man was waiting for them at the Kloofsig train station shortly before 7am. He approached the woman and they started arguing again.


He took out a 9mm pistol, shot her four times and ran into the nature reserve. She died on the scene. Police are still looking for the suspect.
