Man gunned down in his driveway in Durban
A 33-year-old man was shot dead while leaving his home in Avoca Road in Greenwood Park, Durban, on Thursday morning.
'Preliminary reports indicate that the victim was in his vehicle when he was ambushed by two suspects travelling in a white vehicle. They shot him multiple times before fleeing,' KwaZulu-Natal police spokesperson, Constable Thenjiswa Ngcobo, said.
Private security company, KwaZulu-Natal VIP, dispatched emergency medical officials to the scene after community members raised the alarm.
Company representative Glen Naidoo said first responders found the victim, believed to be an Indian male, critically wounded in his vehicle.
Naidoo said it was reported that the attackers pulled up in a white Toyota Etios.
'An African male suspect reportedly exited the Etios and opened fire on the driver before fleeing the scene in an unknown direction,' he added.
Despite extensive life-saving efforts, the man died.
