South Africa - Police Shootout

(27 Jan 1995) A striking policeman was killed in a shootout with other police in
South Africa's Soweto township on Friday (27/1). Police spokesman
Lt-Colonel Joseph Ngobeni said: "There was a shootout while police
were arresting strikers... one policeman, a striker, was shot
dead, and one policeman, a member of the dog unit, was injured,"
Ngobeni said the incident began when about 50 strikers, members of
the Police and Prisons Civil Right Union (POPCRU), staged a sit-in
at the sprawling township's Orlando police station.
