Fritz and other Western Cape Community Safety officials visited the communities that are overwhelmed by gang related violence on Tuesday.
 Mr Fritz further said he plans to enroll the unemployed youth at training academics and teach skills such as carpentry and plumbing.
 He urged the youth to take part in this programme so they can become better citizens.
