A Durban man has died of a heart attack after he was stabbed by a suspected robber.
The man was stabbed during a home robbery in Roger Sishi Road on Tuesday morning.
According to the Advanced Life Support Paramedic spokesperson, Garrith Jamieson, they were alerted to the scene of the incident in the early hours of today.
“Just after 5.20am paramedics were called to an alleged home invasion.”
“On arrival, paramedics found three occupants of the house who had been injured.”
“A male, believed to be in his 50s, had sustained a critical stab wound and was stabilised on scene by advanced life support paramedics before the man went into cardiac arrest.”
Jamieson said the paramedics and doctors at a local hospital tried everything possible to revive the man but he later succumbed to his injuries.
The two other occupants who had minor injuries were also taken to hospital where they were treated.
At the time of writing, no report has been given by the police yet.
Any further report given on this matter will be published.
