Eastern Cape police have confirmed that the alleged shooter at a school in Ntabankulu has been declared dead at the scene. This as they are investigating a fatal shooting of a teacher that occurred earlier today at Ntabankulu Junior Secondary School where two other teachers were also injured in the incident.
Police Spokesperson Nobuntu Gantana says reports indicate that a former teacher at the school, who was out on bail for sexual assault charges involving learners, forcibly gained entry to the premises by cutting through the perimeter fence.
Gantana added that he allegedly shot at other teachers before turning the gun on himself.
