An ex-police officer is on the run after shooting and killing a prophet at a shrine before killing the Officer- in-Charge of Wedza Police Station on Friday afternoon.
He further shot dead another victim while fleeing the scene.
The suspect, Jaison Muvhevi, killed Inspector Hove after killing the prophet.
National Police Spokesperson, Assistant Commissioner, Paul Nyathi, confirmed the incident.
“The Zimbabwe Republic Police is urgently appealing for information which may immediately lead to the arrest of a suspect who is driving a Toyota Allion, new shape, white in colour registration number AFW 7641.
