Seventeen people, including 15 women and 2 men, have been killed in two mass shootings in Lusikisiki, Eastern Cape province, South Africa. One person is in critical condition in the hospital. The victims are reported to be relatives and neighbors. A manhunt is underway to apprehend the suspects, with police searching for those behind the heinous killings. The shootings occurred in two separate homesteads, with one location resulting in no survivors. The incident is part of a larger trend of mass shootings in South Africa, where murder rates are at a 20-year high.
We have full faith and confidence in the team that has been deployed to crack this case and find these criminals. Either they hand themselves over or we will fetch them ourselves.
A manhunt has been launched to apprehend those behind these heinous killings.
We have a team of detectives that is already on the ground. We have a team of experts coming in from Pretoria that are descending in Lusikisiki, to investigate, to collect all evidence with the aim of apprehending those [who] are behind these callous attacks.
The gunmen came and shot randomly... This has left the community terrified.
