Potelwa says law enforcement agencies are continuing with investigations. “Western Cape Organised Crime detectives with other crime scene experts are on the scene, combing for clues.

No-one has been arrested yet and police are calling on the community to come forward with any information.  

According to the Cape Times, a shocked witness, who asked not to be named, said two men were seen carrying guns and shooting into the air before entering the house.

“Inside a car, there were two men. I was outside in the yard, and just came (back) from the shop when I saw two gentlemen with heavy guns shooting in the air.

“I got inside the house to hide and after a second, I heard more than 10 gunshots. When I came out to see what was happening, the car was already gone,” the witness said.

Western Cape Organised Crime detectives with other crime scene experts combed the scene for clues. “Details from the scene are still sketchy. An update will be provided in due course.”
