A 22 year old man from Mvurwi is in hot soup for attempting to murder his best friend with an axe on Christmas day over a road runner chicken dispute.

Apparently Matthew Chitsiga and his best friend Ben Manjoro were having a beer fellowship in Robertson Farm Mvurwi, Mashonaland Central  province on Christmas day.

It is alleged Chitsiga demanded his road runner chicken from Manjoro since it was a feasting day but Manjoro had other plans with that chicken and a scuffle arose resulting in Chitsiga picking an axe.

He tried to strike Manjoro in the head but Manjoro was quick to react and blocked the axe using his hand which in turn was severely sliced.

A police report was made at Mvurwi police station and Chitsiga reportedly fled from the compound when police visited his homestead on 26 December.

However, it emerged that he surrendered him self the following day and is currently assisting police with investigations
