Police are investigating an attempted murder case following the shooting of a bread delivery driver in Kraaifontein on Tuesday morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The incident occurred at approximately 09:30 in Basakabini Crescent, Wallaceden<\/a>e.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CCTV footage of the Kraaifontein shooting has been widely shared on social media and crime WhatsApp groups. The footage shows the delivery truck stopping in front of a shop as the driver’s assistants carry crates of bread into the store. As the two men return to the vehicle, two suspects run around a corner with one firing multiple shots through the driver’s window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“He was delivering bread when five unidentified males approached him and robbed him. In the process, he was shot in the face,” Van Wyk said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
