Bullets fly at KZN wedding, teen dies

GUESTS at a KwaZulu-Natal wedding got more than they bargained for when the groom fired a volley of shots to prevent a fight – and a teenager was killed.

The gun-toting Eshowe groom who loosed at least four shots at the wedding on Sunday has been charged with murder.

An 18-year-old boy was killed and another man was seriously wounded in the fracas‚ which broke out at the traditional wedding ceremony at the Ezingwenya reserve in Eshowe‚ northern KwaZulu-Natal.

Police spokesman Lieutenant-Colonel Thulani Zwane said detectives had arrested the 38-year-old groom at his family homestead where the nuptials were being held.— DDC
