Five killed in Paarl mass shooting
Western Cape police have launched a manhunt for the murder of five people at Mbekweni in Paarl.
The victims were all shot and killed on Monday night.
The deceased are two boys, one man and two women.
Police spokesperson Andrè Traut says they do not believe the shooting is related to the taxi strike in Cape Town.
"At around 11pm police responded to a complaint of several gunshots fired at a residence in Chris Hani Street when they discovered the bodies of three male victims aged 12, 14, and 34 and two female victims aged 32 and 39."
"At this stage there is no indication that the incident is linked to the taxi strike in the province. No arrests have been made."
The motive for the shooting is being investigated.
