Five suspects were shot and fatally wounded in a shootout with police at Pump House informal settlement in Chatsworth in the early hours of Monday morning, 08 September 2025.
Police operationalised intelligence about the whereabouts of the suspects who were wanted for cases of murder, house robberies, extortion and possession of unlicenced firearms which they allegedly committed in the areas of Mpumalanga township, Mariannhill, KwaNdengezi and Umsunduzi.
Intelligence led the police to the suspects' hideout spot in Chatsworth and when police announced their arrival, the suspects started spraying a hail of bullets towards police officers and a shootout ensued. During the shootout, five suspects were shot and fatally wounded. No police officer sustained any injury during the shootout.
Three firearms, one of them a homemade gun, were found in the possession of the suspects. The suspects are believed to be between the ages of 17 and early to mid twenties.
