JOHANNESBURG, South Africa (AP) - A senior South African policeman went on a shooting rampage, killing eight people — including a 2-year-old baby — before being shot dead by colleagues Tuesday, police said. A pedestrian was killed during a police chase of the suspect.
The victims of Monday night's shootings included four other policemen and three women. At least two other people were wounded seriously.
Superintendent Chippa Mateane, 42, killed his girlfriend, her daughter, granddaughter and niece Monday evening, police spokeswoman Mary Martins-Engelbrecht said. Another relative was wounded critically.
