JOHANNESBURG - North West police are calling on community members to help find suspects who shot and killed a local ward councillor in Rustenburg.

Police say the councillor was walking with her cousin on Friday night when unknown gunmen approached them and fired shots at her.

The suspects fled the scene with the motive of the murder still under investigation.

"The victim's cousin ran into the yard and screamed for help. As a result, the victim's brother got out of the house and spotted the suspects running away and eventually fled from the place with a BMW vehicle" said Spokesperson Sabata Mokgwabone.
