A suspect was fatally shot by City Police officers after trying to flee from a house-breaking incident in Khomasdal.

The incident occurred at around three this morning when City Police members attempted to verbally stop two male suspects who were breaking into a house in Khomasdal and broke the gate.

The police warned the suspects not to flee the scene, but the two started running while shooting at the City Police members. 

In defence, the City Police members retaliated, and one of the suspects was unfortunately hit by a bullet.
