The youth had gone on a rampage and fired randomly at people injuring the two. He also shot himself in the foot and was taken to hospital under police guard. He was later released from hospital into his parents’ care.

According to reports, the boy was later moved to a juvenile facility after residents in the area, who feared the boy would attack again, sent a petition to the Hillbrow police station demanding that he be removed.
