Two 'robbers' killed
Date Posted: Friday 02-May-2008Two robbers were shot dead by their intended victims in a house in Lenasia South on Friday morning, said Johannesburg police.
Inspector Mpho Kgasoane said the men struck at about 3am, confronted a couple, their in-laws and five children.
"The men demanded jewellery, money and cellphones," she said.
"The owner of the house and his father-in-law were tied up, while the wife and mother-in-law were taken to the kitchen in an attempt to rape them."
Kgasoane said the home owner untied himself and his father-in-law and they fetched their firearms.
"They shot randomly at the robbers and both died on the scene.
"The father-in-law was accidentally injured by one of the shots and was taken to hospital in a stable condition," she said.
Police were investigating cases of house robbery and murder. - Sapa

“Political language is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.”

My all time favourite movie quote is from the Dwarf in Lord of the Rings: "Certainty of death, small chance of success... what are we waiting for?"
