JUST IN: How a robbery victim guns down robber

A suspected armed robber who was part of a three-man gang was shot dead when the gang tried to hold up a prisons officer in his house at Oyarifa Rehoboth Estates at dawn yesterday.

The officer, in self-defence, fired his pump action gun, which killed one of the robbers who had gone to the house to rob the household.

The two other suspected robbers managed to escape after their accomplice had been gunned down.

Although the identity of the deceased is yet to be established, the police have indicated that he was about 30 years old.
