An e-hailing driver who had just dropped off a client in Bekkersdal, west of Johannesburg, in the early hours of Sunday was among the nine people killed in a mass shooting that started at a tavern in the area.
Deputy provincial police commissioner Maj-Gen Fred Kekana said the driver was shot dead by the unknown gunmen as they were fleeing the scene and shooting randomly in the street after shooting patrons at the tavern.
While police were at the tavern, and another team of police was at the clinic, another shooting occurred by the same suspects as they shot dead an e-hailing driver who had just dropped off a client, Kekana said.
