sapsSprings Advertiser reports that the Springs SA Police Service (SAPS) has confirmed the arrests of two men on Monday morning in connection with the murder of Captain Wynand du Toit.

He was tragically gunned down during a shoot-out on Sunday morning in Geduld following his brave attempt to thwart a robbery in progress involving four male suspects. Du Toit sustained injuries and was transported to Life Springs Parkland Hospital, where he later succumbed to his injuries. One of the suspects was apprehended at Pholosong Hospital and another fled to Evander, in Mpumalanga, to seek medical attention for gunshot wounds sustained during the shootout. “He was pursued all the way to Evander where he was trying to escape,” said Springs SAPS spokesperson Sergeant Themba Tshabalala, who added that the investigation was still ongoing.
