Three Somalian nationals were shot and one killed on Saturday in Delft when they were accosted by three armed suspects who demanded entry by opening the shop's burglar gate, which was locked from the inside. The Somalian inside heard the commotion and hid himself inside the shop, whilst the ones outside had no means of access.

“The robbers became agitated as they could not obtain access and fired indiscriminately at the four shopkeepers. 30-year-old Abdul Mohammed Sabir was shot in the chest, 26-year-old Abdul Kadar in the chest and neck and 25-year-old Libaan Kadar was shot in the legs,” said SAPS spokesperson Captain Joe Wilson
