“I confronted my boss about this but he got angry and pulled out a gun. He then started shooting at me and I took cover."

“Sorry, I won’t comment further on this matter as it is in the hands of the police.”
Confirming the incident, the KZN police spokeswoman identified as Captain Nqobile Gwala, said:
