Case postponed of pensioner convicted in fatal KZN road rage shooting

Sentencing proceedings in a Kloof road rage murder case were postponed to June as concerns over violent incidents on SA roads continue.

On June 22, the Pinetown Regional Court is due to hear the mitigating and aggravating arguments ahead of the sentencing of the pensioner convicted of a 2022 Kloof road rage murder.

Highway Mail reports that in March 2025 Anthony Edward Ball was convicted of the 2022 fatal shooting of Dean Charnley, a father of two, during a road rage incident in the Kloof area.

The matter was postponed to June during yesterday’s (May 7) court proceedings.

It is reported that Ball was 67 years old at the time of his arrest in 2022, while Charnley was 49.

Recent road rage incidents

Meanwhile, a recent road rage incident in Johannesburg that resulted in a fatal shooting raised concerns about such incidents on the country’s roads.

In that incident, it was reported that 48-year-old Faisal Ul Rehman was killed, while his wife, Tehseen Zahara Faisal, was left critically injured.

Following the incident, police in the province urged the public, especially drivers, to abide by traffic rules and laws and exercise patience on the road to avoid road rage incidents unfolding.
