Detectives from the Ivory Park SAPS are investigating a case of murder, attempted murder and house robbery at Kaalfontein on Monday night, 6 September 2021.
It is reported that a small group of people known to each other were seated, drinking and chatting when they were attacked by three armed men who told them to lie down.
“Without being provoked one of the three men shot two of the group members, one of whom died at the local clinic while the other victim was taken to hospital. “ said Ivory Park SAPS Spokesperson, Captain Ben Matimulane.
“Only the cheapest phone and a television were taken but all the other cellular phones were not. Police are positive of finding out if the actual reason was pure robbery or wether there was more to this killing” added Matimulane.
The police are appealing to any member of the public to assist in identifying the perpetrators or provide any information that may assist the police.
Potential informants are reminded that all the information received will be treated with confidentiality.
“We have on many occasions solved many crimes with the assistance of the community without ever comprising their safety. We call on anyone with information to trust us as the victims deserve to know what the reasons for their loved ones murder and attempted murder is”, says Brigadier David Mbongeni Ngcobo, Station Commander of the Ivory Park SAPS.
