The community of Reiger Park in Ekurhuleni says they are fearing for their lives due to ongoing gang-related killings in the area.
Six people, including three women, were shot dead, and three other people were left injured after suspects driving in two vehicles started shooting randomly on Saturday.
The motive for the attack is not known at this stage. And police have launched a manhunt for the suspects.
The situation in the area remains tense.
Reiger Park ward councillor Edith Claasen says, “Whatever sparked this off, I cannot tell you now. But I am sure it is a gang thing; it is a drug thing. Because what else can it be? I want to assure the community that the police are on this. People of Reiger Park, I want to assure you that the case is in good hands. Something will happen because the concern of residents is that when something gets to court, there’s always a lack of evidence.”
