The family of a well-known Nelspruit man have accused the police of executing him while he was lying on the ground. The police, however, claim that the man was waving toy gun around when he was shot.

Merwyn Masher, 38, stopped at the scene of an accident on Madiba Drive in Nelspruit in the early hours of Sunday morning where another person had been killed in a hit-and-run accident.

According to the police, after a motorcyclist slammed into the back of a car, a second car then hit the motorcycle. As a passenger from the second vehicle climbed out, she was hit by another car which sped off. The woman was killed instantly.

Masher, who arrived on the scene after the collision, then allegedly got involved in an argument with some bikers.
