The police’s Andre Traut said a fifth victim was admitted
to hospital, also with a gunshot wound.
‘’Police members were summoned to the crime scene in Lloyd
informal settlement in Govan Mbeki Road at around 21:40 where the bodies of
three men and one female in their twenties were discovered with gunshot wounds
inside a shack. A fifth victim was admitted to hospital, also with a gunshot
wound,’’ said Colonel Andrè Traut.

The Nyanga Community Police Forum (CPF) condemned the
incident.
‘’It cannot be just a mass murder for no reason, so we
await SAPS’ investigation. We request people with information to come forward
with any information. We also appeal with the community not to take the law
into their own hands. We denounce the action,’’ said Dumisani Qwebe, Nyanga CPF
Secretary.
It has been a while that Lloyd informal settlement was in
the news for the wrong reason. It was quiet and happy, until this recent incident,’’
he added.
