Police said some of the victims were known to authorities in connection with illegal activities but declined to disclose further details, citing the ongoing investigation.

The motive for the shooting has not been established, although police said they could not rule out a feud between rival groups.

A local television reporter from eNCA at the scene also reported that the gunmen set fire to a vehicle belonging to one of the victims before fleeing.

The shooting comes amid continued concerns over violent crime in South Africa, which has one of the world’s highest murder rates.
