Xolani Joja<\/a> said shootings are becoming a norm in the area as the people are killed daily.<\/p>\n\n\n\nJoja said this after a young man was shot and killed near Yonela Spaza Shop at Oliver Tambo Drive on Sunday 22. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a similar incident, a man suspected to be a taxi driver was shot dead at the Corner Pocket area on Monday 23 June.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We are really saddened by these incidents. As CPF members, our hearts are with the deceased families during the bereavement moment. We are appealing to all the law enforcement agencies not to leave any stone unturned,” said Joja.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He urged all the relevant community stakeholders to have a special meeting to look at this matter. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Joja requested anyone with information to come forward.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Provincial police spokesperson Capt FC Van Wyk said the circumstances surrounding a shooting incident on Monday at about 05:10 in Oliver Tambo Street, Samora Machel, are under investigation. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said Samora Machel officers registered a murder case for investigation.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“According to reports, the officers attended to the complaint of a shooting incident and on their arrival of the crime scene at the mentioned address they saw a white Quantum taxi and found the body of the 40 year old male laying on the pavement next to the driver side of the vehicle. He had multiple gunshot wounds to his upper body,” said Van Wyk.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said the victim was declared deceased on the scene by medical personnel. Van Wyk said the motive for the shooting forms part of the investigation. He said the suspect\/s are yet to be arrested.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
