We are still to establish the motive of the shooting because the assailant just shot the woman and disappeared into the darkness without taking anything,

We have launched a manhunt for the gunman and we are appealing to members of the public who might have information which may lead to his arrest to report to their nearest police station.

ZUPCO public relations officer Obert Chikuku, also confirmed the death:

“It’s true we lost one of our conductors in a shooting in Dzivarasekwa on Monday night. We are still to establish the motive of the shooting because the gunman didn’t rob anything from the bus crew. We are suspecting that he could be having issues with the deceased. We are really sorry to the family for the sad loss.”

A social media post by an apparent close associate was part of the messages circulating on social media:
