A cop stationed at Cowdray Park police station got more than what he expected as a man severely attacked him with a broken beer bottle and kicked him for having allegedly arrested his girlfriend.

Constable Mlondolozi Ncube was confronted while he was in the suburb shortly after 7.30pm. The man fiercely accused him of having arrested his girlfriend identified as Simo. While Ncube was trying to reason with him the man severely attacked him with a broken beer bottle.

A source said: “Blood gushed as he fell to the ground. He punched him and kicked him while accusing him of having arrested his lover. The man insulted him before he fled into darkness.”

The source added: “Ncube had a blackout and regained consciousness later. He then went and reported the incident at the police station.”

Making a report at the station Ncube stated that he never arrested a person identified as Simo and he does not know her. He was referred to Mpilo Central Hospital for medical attention.

Bulawayo police spokesperson Inspector Abednico Ncube was not available for a comment.
