Police in KwaZulu-Natal have launched a manhunt for a suspect who allegedly shot at five people, killing one and injuring three in Durban on Sunday.
According to Colonel Robert Netshiunda, the shooting happened outside their rented house on Adelaide Tambo Road in Durban North.
Four foreign women of Asian origin were reportedly sitting in one room of their rented house when an Asian man joined them.
On arrival, the four women asked the man to accompany them to the nearby shopping centre.
“When the women and their friend were getting inside the vehicle, another man, also an Asian, emerged from inside the house and fired shots,” said Netshiunda.
“One woman sustained fatal gunshot wounds and was declared dead at the scene, whereas the other women were rushed to hospital in a critical condition.”
The man who was with them escaped unharmed.
The publication understands there may have been illegal activities happening in the house before the shooting.
Investigations are underway to establish the motive of the shooting and the relations between the suspect and the victims.
Blue light gang shooting
In a separate incident in Mpumalanga, three suspected members of a blue light gang were killed during a shootout with police on Sunday.
Police received information about a gang, which allegedly commits blue light robberies on the N3 between Villiers and Heidelberg.
They allegedly use a white Toyota Hilux.
A multidisciplinary team traced the suspects to N3 highway, Grootvlei in Mpumalanga, said Brigadier Brenda Muridili.
“The vehicle was spotted with blue lights on. The suspects saw the police and sped away, resulting in a high-speed chase towards Zonkizizwe, Ekurhuleni,” said Muridili.
“The suspects started shooting at the team and the team retaliated. Three suspects were fatally shot and one suspect managed to flee the scene on foot.”
The police seized two unlicensed firearms and ammunition, blue lights, and the suspects’ vehicle.
Investigations continue.
