A murder and robbery suspect was spotted and apprehended by an off-duty police sergeant on-board a taxi in Ny1, Guguletu yesterday.
The suspect climbed in the taxi and was allegedly in the process of taking out a gun, when the sergeant drew his gun and fired at the suspect wounding him in the leg.
Police were searching for the 19-year-old suspect in connection with an incident that occurred on the 8th of February 2007. A police constable was murdered and robbed of his official firearm in Browns Farm, while picking up a colleague for duty.
The suspect was arrested for murder, armed robbery and the possession of an illegal firearm.
Hw will appear in the Wynberg Magistrate Court soon.
