Johannesburg
- A Daveyton man is alive and a robber dead on Thursday after assailants tried to shoot the man with a gun that misfired, Gauteng police said.
-The 36-year old man was walking to work at 04:00 when he was confronted by three robbers, said Captain Alfred Nakana.
-"The robbers demanded cash and his cellphone at gunpoint," he said.
One of the robbers tried to shoot the 36-year-old but luckily his weapon jammed.
"His firearm was loaded with different kinds of ammunition," said Nakana.
-This gave the 36-year-old man enough time to draw and fire his own licenced firearm, shooting his assailant.
-Nakana said the robber, in his twenties, died instantly. His two accomplices fled the scene. The misloaded gun was unlicensed and stolen, said Nakana.
-A case of attempted armed robbery and possession of a stolen firearm had been opened. Nakana said police were still looking for the other two robbers.

Call me crazy, but it serves the chumps right. I mean, how can you have the audacity to walk in to another mans establishment, DEMAND the fruits of his labor and possibly expect to leave without getting a spanking? The fact that this tool used the wrong kind of ammunition to load his weapon is a true testament to the ignorance of some people. FFS if you're going to do something do it right!
