Three robbers shot and killed in Johannesburg

Three suspected robbers have been shot and killed in Bertrams in Johannesburg. It is understood the armed suspects broke into a house early on Tuesday morning and ambushed the owner as he went out to his car. Police spokesperson Mosima Manganyi said the man’s son had heard him scream and had rushed to his aid. She says a gunfight ensued and the son fatally wounded all three would-be robbers. Manganyi says three cases of murder are being investigated but the Director of Public Prosecutions will decide whether the robbers had been shot in self-defence.
