<p style="text-align: justify;">Bulawayo police have launched a manhunt for a teenager from Hope Fountain following the alleged murder of a 15-year-old boy at a community borehole on December 2.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">According to Assistant Inspector Nomalanga Msebele, the incident occurred when Ntandoyenkosi Ncube (19) reportedly stabbed Mduduzi Mkandla during an altercation at the borehole, where they were accompanied by friends.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The injured teenager was immediately rushed to United Bulawayo Hospitals, but tragically, he was pronounced dead upon arrival. The motive behind the altercation remains unclear at this stage.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In a separate incident, authorities have arrested four adult males from the Tshabalala high-density suburb in connection with the murder of a 23-year-old man from Nkulumane 12. The suspects, identified as Malucky Mwembe (28), Isiah Mlauzi (21), Peace Israel Mlauzi (21), and Delma Phiri (22), allegedly engaged in a fatal assault on Obediah Mumba (23) during a dispute at a local sports bar.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Following the assault, the four individuals fled the scene, leaving Mumba unconscious on the ground. Although patrons at the establishment called for an ambulance, Mumba was tragically pronounced dead at the scene.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Expressing concern over the incidents, Assistant Inspector Nomalanga Msebele urged individuals to seek peaceful resolutions to their conflicts instead of resorting to violence. Msebele emphasized the distressing loss of young lives in situations that could have been resolved through peaceful means.</p>
