ARMED criminals went on a terror spree in Tabaquite over the weekend, robbing several residents and killing a young man who was preparing to be baptised next week.

Hours before 21-year-old Matthew Chancellor was killed, residents said the men committed a series of robberies in the area.

When the Express visited the family yesterday at their home in New Bolt, Tabaquite, Maxwelo Chancellor, 47, said he believed his son was the victim of a case of mistaken identity.
