News24 reports that a man is set to appear in the Johannesburg Magistrate's Court on Monday for allegedly killing a car guard after he noticed items were missing from his vehicle.
The man, 25, had parked his car on the corner of Rissik and Pritchard Streets on Tuesday evening to buy food. When he returned to the vehicle, he realised two bags were missing. They contained his ID book, matric certificate and toiletries. Police spokesperson Captain Xoli Mbele said on Sunday that the suspect apparently questioned the 26-year-old car guard about his bags and they got into a fight. He allegedly assaulted the guard with his fists before driving off. Paramedics arrived at the scene and declared the guard dead. Mbele said the man handed himself over to the police on Friday after they had visited his home in Alexandra.
