The police managed to stop the looters and no casualties have been reported, no arrests were made.
Constable Dakalo Phemula confirmed that the violence outbreak has started earlier today, stating that the affected areas include Naledi, Emndeni and Zola amongst others.
Police spokesperson Captain Kay Makhubela said more police are deployed to maintain control in Soweto and that the people involved will be arrested.
According to Makhubela no casualties have been reported.
