Johannesburg, July 19: One person died and five were injured during a shooting in Robinvale, Western Cape police said on Sunday.
Captain Cyril Dicks said three men have been arrested on murder and attempted murder charges in connection with the incident.
“Six people were shot and wounded, one died, two are in a serious condition and three sustained flesh wounds,” said Dicks.
He said the shooting incident occurred at about 20:45 on Saturday night.
“It is believed that the three men approached the victims, who were standing in the drive-way of a place where liquor was sold.
“The men apparently fired several shots at the victims.
“We are investigating the possibility that the incident was gang-related,” said Dicks.
He said the men would appear in the Atlantis Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday.
