Review Online reports that Seshego police have launched a manhunt following the murder of a 36-year-old security officer who was fatally stabbed while on duty at a fast-food outlet in Sengatane Village.

Limpopo police spokesperson Colonel Malesela Ledwaba reported that officers were called to a local hospital on Saturday morning after the victim was admitted with a deep stab wound. Preliminary investigations revealed that the security officer was on duty when he got into an argument with a male customer. The suspect reportedly pulled out a sharp object and stabbed the victim before fleeing the scene. The victim was initially treated at the local hospital but was later transferred to the Provincial Hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries.

The attacker, who remains at large, was allegedly driving a white Toyota Avanza with no registration plates. The vehicle is said to have a distinctive, bold black sticker on the bonnet with the word “London” written on it.
