The third was rushed to hospital by ambulance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA male and female were shot multiple times in the head and another male was rushed to hospital by ambulance,\u201d Van Houten said. \u201cThe motive is gang-related.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to crime-watch WhatsApp groups there was a third fatal shooting this morning in Salvia Street, Lentegeur, but police had yet to confirm this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lentegeur Community Police Forum (CPF) chairperson Michael Jacobs said the group strongly condemned the killings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs the Lentegeur CPF we condemn the killings in Woodlands and Lentegeur in the strongest possible terms,&#8221; he said, &#8220;and ask the police to ensure the perpetrators are hunted down and arrested.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The incidents follow a week of<a href=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/tygerburger\/mitchells-plain-is-quiet-but-tense-after-gang-warfare-shootings\/\"> relative calm<\/a>.
