“A witness who chose to remain anonymous told the police that six suspects entered the shop and were seen fighting with the shop owner. A shot was fired and the witness, fearing for his life, ran away from the crime scene.
“He said the men came out of the shop in threes, and were carrying items,” reported Matimulane.
