Erratic Driving Raises Alarm
The 29-year-old musician was intercepted yesterday at the busy intersection of Cripps Road and Remembrance Drive near Mupedzanhamo. This comes after police officers were alerted after observing what they described as reckless driving.
Upon stopping the vehicle, officers established that Ti Gonzi was operating the black Mercedes-Benz without a valid driver’s licence.
Drugs Discovered During Search
According to H-Metro, a subsequent search of the vehicle uncovered a half-bottle of Benylin cough mixture along with two prepared twists of dagga and two sachets believed to contain illegal drugs.
The discovery escalated what began as a routine traffic stop into a criminal investigation.
Police Confirm Multiple Charges
Harare provincial police spokesperson Inspector Luckmore Chakanza confirmed the arrest, saying the musician is facing several charges under the Road Traffic Act.
“The suspect was arrested for reckless driving, driving without a valid licence, failing to comply with police instructions, as well as possession of illegal drugs,” Chakanza said, citing contraventions of various sections of the Road Traffic Act, Chapter 13:11.
Legal Proceedings Await
At the time of reporting, Ti Gonzi remained in police custody as investigations continued. Authorities indicated that he is expected to appear in court soon.
The arrest has sparked widespread reaction on social media.
