According to authorities, the suspects had been on the run for some time. A joint team of officers from KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng tracked them down, following leads that eventually led to their hideout.
The confrontation ended in gunfire, leaving both suspects dead. Police say the operation was part of an ongoing effort to curb violent crime in the province.
