A gang of criminals shot and injured two Mozambican policemen who interrupted an attempted robbery against a house in the city of Cuamba, in the northernmost province of Niassa, on Monday.
According to the provincial police commander, Alves Mate, cited by Radio Mozambique, five men wearing military uniforms, and armed with an AK-47 assault rifle, tied up the security guard on duty, and broke into the house.
The owner of the house, hearing unusual noises, realised a burglary was under way and phoned the provincial police command, which immediately sent a unit to the house.
When the police arrived, the gang opened fire on them, and then fled. The two injured policemen were immediately taken to the Cuamba Rural Hospital for treatment.
