Fresh details emerging from the scene where assassins intercepted General Katumba Wamala’s vehicle this morning show that the gunmen also shot an unidentified person in a nearby storied building.

Isaac Kawonawo, the Wakiso Deputy Resident District Commissioner in Charge of Kiira Municipality told media at the scene that the assailants shot the unidentified man in the leg and he was rushed to hospital.

Although there is scanty information about the victim, Scene of crime officers-SOCO, say that this person could have witnessed the shooting prompting one of the assailants to shot him.

Moments after the shooting, several videos recordings from the nearby buildings went viral on social media, indicating that some residents could have recorded what transpired using their smartphones. 

During the attack that occurred along Kisaasi-Kisota road, General Katumba’s daughter, Brenda Wamala Nantongo and driver, Haruna Kayondo were killed on the spot.

General Katumba sustained two gunshots in the shoulders and was rushed on Boda boda to Malcolm Clinic in Kisaasi for treatment, and later to Medipal Hospital in Kololo for further medical attention.
