NIU shoots man who tried to hijack G20-hired car with imitation gun
Executive Summary
National Intervention Unit (NIU) officers in Johannesburg shot a suspected hijacker on Friday evening after he allegedly tried to steal a vehicle assigned to the G20 Leaders’ Summit during routine security patrols along Empire Road. The man jumped onto the road and pointed an imitation firearm at the driver, unaware the occupants were elite NIU members, leading one officer to fire a shot that wounded him in the upper body. He was transported to hospital under guard and will face charges for attempted hijacking and related offenses under the Firearms Control Act. With world leaders arriving, authorities have warned of firm responses to any security threats.
