Johannesburg - A man was shot and killed in the driveway of his Alberton home on Tuesday night, said Gauteng police.

Marius Pretorius, 45, arrived at his Verwoedpark house and a car stopped behind him at 20:00, said superintendent Andy Pieke.

"The man spotted men getting out of this car and it is believed he thought he was about to be robbed.

He reversed his car into their vehicle."

A shot fired by one of the vehicle's occupants hit the man in the upper body. His wife rushed him to hospital where he was declared dead on arrival.
