Two people have been arrested related to gunfire at a church in Khayelitsha

Over the weekend, police were performing stop-and-search operations in Harare when they heard gunshots and followed the sound to a church.

The churchgoers were told to stay on the premises while a search was carried out.

"Police members heard the engine of a vehicle started and they approached it. One of the passengers urgently requested to use the bathroom, he was searched and found to be in possession of a Tokarev Vector 9mm pistol, of which the serial number was removed. Another person was approached and searched and in his sling bag was found a CZ 9mm firearm, of which the serial number was removed, with an empty cartridge", said the police's Frederick Van Wyk.
