A resident from Ethiopia was shot and killed by two men as they tried to hijack his car in Esigubudu in Nongoma on Wednesday, KwaZulu-Natal police said.
“The man was attacked by two men who tried to hijack him. When they failed to move his car, they shot him and he died on the scene,” said Captain Vusi Mbatha.
A second Ethiopian managed to escape. The Ethiopian men were selling clothes in the area when they were attacked, he said.
“No arrests have been made. Police are working hard to track down the criminals,” Mbatha said.

It is so sad to hear all the time that fellow African has been robbed or killed in South Africa. I really don’t understand why they are behaving like this, the South African gov’t should do something about such issues. Such a beautiful country, but unsafe, full of criminals. We thought xenophobia has been controlled. There is a long way to safety in that land. May his soul rest in peace.
