Law enforcement officers in Gaborone have embarked on a man hunt of five (5) armed suspicious characters believed to be foreign nationals.

This follows a shoot-out between six (6) armed men and law enforcement officers at Block 8 location in Gaborone last night, which subsequently led to the arrest of one of the suspects.

Members of the public are therefore informed to be on the look outand report any suspicious characters to the nearest Police Station orcall emergency number 999. They are also warned not to approach the suspected men who are armed and dangerous.

Investigations are continuing.
