Would-be Hijacker killed in PTA

Why? His life was in danger from the sound of it and he used the permitted lethal force to protect himself.

You know how this country works, they going to say "what about him giving warning shots" or whatever....
 
He could have driven away?

As per the OP it would seem that the man was trapped?

...a member of the Wierdabrug community policing forum (CPF) was about to open the gate to his house... noticed a car with no licence plates behind him...The [attacker] jumped out from the right back door of the vehicle with a Vektor firearm pointed at the complainant

Our law does not state the need for a waring shot. If a life is in danger you have the right to use lethal force to protect said life.

Ya - we don't know all the details... Could have been an electronic gate and he could have been waiting in the street for the gate to open and could have driven off...
"could have" = assumption
We all know what they say about assumptions...
 
They should trace the origin of the gun. Unless it has it's ID numbers "scratched" off.
SP-1 pistol is currently in service with the South African National Defence Force and the South African Police Service. Outside South Africa, the pistol is seen in the hands of the officers as one of the standard issue sidearm of the Royal Malaysian Police, the national police of Malaysia.
 
Yes very good. 1 less. Im more concerned that he had his hands on a Vektor. Marine1 can provide more info on this, a hijacker with a Vektor is incredibly worrying. As I understand it they only prototype in limited quantity. Potentially that CPF member just gunned down a member of our 'esteemed' military.

No, they are also sold to the public at any gun shop.
 
Probably went down a little like this...
