Anti-Gang Unit (AGU) detectives working around the clock in search of those involved in the murder of a five-year-old boy on Monday arrested two suspects aged 24 and 29.
The five-year-old was shot when warring parties traded gunfire in Drury Court, Lavender Hill, on Saturday. A 22-year-old was also shot and seriously wounded in the incident. He was taken to hospital for medical assistance.
The two suspects are believed to be linked to a series of other cases, the SAPS said in a statement.
The suspects are expected to appear in court on Friday.
Western Cape SAPS management has hailed the efforts of the AGU detectives who tracked down the suspects.
