“This was a very sad event yesterday when I was coming back from church.

“The officer was visibly drunk and all entreaties from his colleagues to allow the lady’s husband who was driving the car to go proved abortive.

“While the lady’s husband was looking for a space to park his, the officer shot at the vehicle and the bullet went straight to the chest of the deceased and she died right there on the spot.

“Thanks to members of the public that chased after the police officer and his colleagues who tried to run away from the scene and apprehended them.”
