Cape Town - Police are investigating a double killing at Telkom's Barrack Street building here.
An off-duty security guard shot dead his female colleague before
killing himself at Telkom's Barrack St building in Cape Town on Thursday morning.
The off-duty officer entered the security control room in uniform
just before 06:00 and fatally shot a woman officer. He then
turned the gun to himself, and died in the office.
The two security officers worked for Telesafe, a security
company contracted to Telkom.
Telkom said in a statement on Thursday: "We regret the loss of life on our premises, and would like to send
condolences to the families of the security officers."
