They are facing murder and attempted murder charges. \u201cWith the investigation unfolding the possibility of more arrests and further charges being pursued cannot be ruled out,\u201d provincial police spokesperson Brig Novela Potelwa stated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over a deadly weekend in the Khayelitsha policing precinct, at least 11 murders and seven attempted murder cases were recorded in a space of three days between Saturday 8 and Monday 10 June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a shocking incident around 15:00 at Qwarha Street in Site C, a group&nbsp;of people emerged from a Quantum minibus and opened fire on the people in a barber shop. Four of them died on the scene and seven were injured. The deceased are between five and 30 years old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In an earlier incident, two men were shot dead at S Section in Site B. They reportedly were also ambushed by Quantum occupants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Khayelitsha police spokesperson Const Asanda Dawethi explained that another incident was recorded at 21:10.

Ever since this extortion thing began in our&nbsp;communities people have been dying like flies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of great concern to him is that these shootings affect innocent people.
