Feel so helpless watching your own brother covered in blood with a bullet in his chest after a police vs robbers shootout. Munhu akazvigarira muoffice make nhai wongobatanidzirwa.
After exchanging gunfire with armed robbers in broad daylight in a neighbourhood like Marlborough. …Saka wasina mhosva ndovamunouraya kunge mombe and the robbers you only wound, God, help us. Rest well mukoma Muchesa Chatsama. I will forever love you, boss.
Police spokesperson Chief Superintendent Paul Nyathi said,
