A 40-year-old Chiredzi man is battling for life after he was seriously injured when he was shot by a cattle rustler who tried to steal his beasts.
Masvingo police spokesperson Inspector Peter Zhanero said Mr Silas Kavulani of Chikombedzi area under Chief Sengwe was shot while herding cattle on June 18.
It is understood Mr Kavulani and his friend, Mr Oliver
Zvakare, spotted two men driving cattle.
They later realised the men were rustlers who were, in fact, driving their cattle.
One of the cattle rustlers escaped while the other fired his gun.
Inspector Zhanero said the culprits are still on the run.
