The Port Elizabeth Serious Organised Crime team of the Hawks arrested a 22-year-old suspect on Wednesday, 10 March 2021 in connection with an incident where two New Brighton police officials were shot at and their official vehicle hijacked in Kwazakhele in February this year.
Sergeant Wongile Ntengo (40) and Sergeant Sonwabile Litole (31) were going about their routine patrols when they were suddenly ambushed by four armed suspects whilst they were talking to a civilian on the street.
The four suspects reportedly approached the marked police vehicle from all four doors and instructed the two police officials to alight.
