Staff Reporter<\/p>\n

A SERIAL poacher with previous convictions is in police custody after he was arrested and treated for a leg wound that he sustained when the owner of the farm Kaliombo in die notorious poaching district of Karibib fired a shot at three fleeing suspects carrying meat.<\/p>\n

The police said that the farm owner patrolled and inspected his farm after he heard dogs barking and was also alerted by security guards of the possibility that there were poachers moving about. The owners came upon three suspected poachers accompanied by three hunting dogs carrying meat. They were armed with spears and an axe.<\/p>\n

The suspects allegedly tried to attack the owner with the spears and the farmer fired a shot and wounded one of the attackers in his left leg which prompted the two others to abandon their accomplice by fleeing from the area,<\/p>\n

The police said that the injured suspect was later found lying on the ground, nursing the gunshot wound. A spear and an axe were also found in his bag. The suspect was taken to Karibib State Clinic, where he is under police guard and in a stable medical condition.<\/p>\n

According to the police, this suspect was identified as a serial offender with previous convictions and after following up the investigation the carcass of an Oryx was recovered near the B2 Road. <\/p>\n

The police are still trying to determine the whereabouts of the suspects that fled the scene .<\/p>\n

Police investigations revealed that the suspects were dropped off at the farm with a white pickup vehicle and it is believed that they were supposed to get picked up afterwards.
Police investigations continue. <\/p>\n
