Fresh details of a man who shot four people in Wedza yesterday have emerged.
According to the Harare Bureau, the suspect is Jaison Muvhevhi, a former Criminal Investigations Department officer, who is armed with an FN rifle and is considered dangerous.
Reports say the heartless suspect arrived at the apostolic sect shrine at 2.30pm yesterday where members had congregated for their Friday prayers, and immediately pulled out a firearm and shot at one of the sect’s leaders from point-blank range.
He then attacked policemen who had heeded a distress call.
The lone gunman then shot and killed the Wedza Police Station Officer-in-Charge and seriously injured another police officer.
From there, as if possessed by some evil spirit, Muvhevhi drove his vehicle to Mukamba Business Centre where he shot and killed another person, before speeding off.
Not much detail could be obtained last night, especially the motive for the killings, as police officers said the immediate task was to track down the suspect and bring him into custody before he commits further crimes.
Meanwhile, In a statement yesterday, national police spokesperson Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi advised members of the public to quickly report any information which may lead to the suspect’s arrest to their nearest police station.
