3 killed in drive-by shooting at KZN school
Three women have been killed in a drive-by shooting outside at a school in Inanda, north of Durban.
The women were shot and killed on Saturday afternoon.
Provincial police say the incident took place while a group of people was standing outside the front gate of Buhlebethu Primary school at around 16:00.
"A black Opel Corsa bakkie with five occupants drove by the school and according to witnesses, they opened fire at the group of people outside the school with handguns, before fleeing the scene," says KZN police spokesperson Jay Naicker.
"Three women, aged between 34 and 60-years old, passed away because of the shooting and a stampede that ensued.
"Four other women and a man were injured during the shootout and received medical attention.
"Police at Inanda are investigating three counts of murder and five of attempted murder.
"At this stage, we cannot confirm the motive for the shooting."
