Two officers wounded in North Coast shooting
There has been another police shooting in northern KwaZulu-Natal this morning.
Emergency services say two officers have been shot after the occupants of a suspicious vehicle allegedly opened fire on them in the Gingindlovu area near eShowe on the north coast.
Initial reports from the scene suggest the suspects opened fire on the officers just before 10am near a shopping outlet along the R102.
IPSS Medical Rescue's Paul Herbst says both of the officers sustained multiple gunshot wounds.
''It's very chaotic at the moment, obviously there are a lot of police involved there. Police are looking for the vehicle in question. Two of the policemen were shot several times,'' he said.
Police have confirmed the incident but are waiting for more information from the scene before verifying any more information.
