MAN ARRESTED FOR KILLING HIS DAD

A MAN from Eldorado Park south of Johannesburg was arrested on Saturday night after he had allegedly shot and killed his father, Soweto police said. Inspector Mbhazima Shiburi said on Sunday two women had an argument around 10.30pm on Saturday night with one woman accusing the other of having an affair with her husband. The husband apparently tried to intervene and hit his wife. Their son, whose age was unknown, then pulled out a firearm and shot at his father, fatally wounding him. Shiburi said the son was arrested and would appear in court soon. – Sapa
