Johannesburg - A 23-year-old man employed as a Fidelity guard at the Alberton City Mall was killed instantly on Thursday when a 600kg gate fell on him, police said.
Sergeant Zithini Dlamini said Sibongile Mcenguwe was on duty at the Game store's receiving and dispatching area in Alberton City around 08:00 and went to close the gate.
As he pulled the gate closed it fell off its rails and crushed him.
Dlamini said paramedics were called to the scene but Mcenguwe was already dead.
