It is alleged that at about 09:00, police were following a Toyota Fortuner with five occupants on the bypass from the Ultra City joining the Ngcobo Road when shots were fired at the police members.
Police retaliated and two suspects were injured (one in the arm and the other in the leg). Three other suspects were also arrested.
Two firearms confiscated. Members involved were Public Order Policing and Mthatha Vispol members. A case of attempted murder and possession of firearms will be opened.
