Two people were injured in a shooting at the quality street on-ramp to the M4 north in Jacobs this morning.  

A report from the scene is that the taxi was coming from Port Shepstone and was trying to join the M4 on the way to Durban when they were shot at.

Netcare911 spokesperson Chris Botha reported that Netcare911 paramedics and other services arrived on the scene and found that the driver of the taxi had sustained serious injuries while the passenger was grazed by a bullet.

After the injured were treated at the scene by medics from various services, they transported them to a nearby hospital for the care that they required.  

 Exact details to the cause of the accident will remain the subject of a police investigation, Botha concluded
