The taxi driver reportedly met his untimely death while driving a taxi with registration number GR 3847-21 and escorting a truck transporting his lumber to a nearby town.
These military men were reportedly chasing the truck. During the chase, they shot through the back windshield of the taxi, killing the driver instantly.
An eyewitness who spoke with Starr FM said;
“They shot him in the head. They even abandoned him and were still pursuing the truck so it was the police officers who noticed the shooting incident and chased the military officers to report themselves to the Police.”
