Pictures: Shoot Out In Marlborough As Police Apprehend Armed Robbers

Members of the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) exchanged gunfire with alleged armed robbers in Marlborough near Mandel Training Station on Friday. According to a detective from the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) who spoke to Pindula, the alleged robbers had come into the country from South Africa. The robbers are reported to have shot and robbed a Chinese national in the Central Business District (CBD) before escaping. However, they were cornered by detectives from the CID in Malborough. The suspects were using a Honda Fit vehicle as their getaway vehicle. However, instead of surrendering to the police, the robbers tried to fight their way out resulting in the shootout.

When Pindula arrived at the scene, the police had managed to apprehend three of the suspects and had taken control of the getaway vehicle. One of the suspects was reported to have been gravely injured. However, one of the suspects escaped and is still at large. Some members of the neighbourhood (pictured), who had their own firearms and dogs tried to assist the police to track and apprehend the other suspect but were ultimately unsuccessful. The  people pictured above  are not police but private citizens who were trying to assist the police.

Here are some pictures from the scene
