A police warrant officer
and a constable were shot dead at the Johannesburg central police station,
Gauteng police said today.
A 31-year-old man, arrested
for possession of dagga, pulled out a firearm after resisting a search by the
officers at the police station on Saturday night, said spokesman Colonel Noxolo
Kweza.
"He refused to be
searched after he was brought to the station. He then pulled out a gun and shot
one of the officers, the other was also shot as he tried to hide," Kweza
said.
The armed man shot himself
and died at the scene.
One officer was aged 31,
while the other was in his 40's, said Kweza.
