A 14-year-old boy accused of shooting and killing 14-year-old Naeema Marshall appeared in the Blue Downs Magistrate’s court on Thursday, on a charge of murder and possession of an illegal firearm.
Marshall was shot and killed in New Forest Village, Eerste River on Monday afternoon. The girl from Beacon Valley, Mitchell’s Plain, was
visiting her aunt at the time of the incident. Western Cape police said the
Anti-Gang Unit has taken over the investigation.

Western Cape Police Oversight & Community
Safety MEC, Reagen Allen, described the killing of a 14-year-old in Eerste
River as ‘’extremely upsetting’’. Allen previously said that whoever gave the
teenager the gun should also be arrested and convicted.
