Date: Jun 28, 2025

Police in the South African (SA) city of Cape Town have launched a manhunt for gunmen who shot and killed seven people in the area’s latest mass shooting on Saturday morning

Members of the community have been asked to come forward if they have any information on the incident, which took place at the Kanana Informal Settlement on the Cape Flats.

Western Cape Police Commissioner, Thembisile Patekile, says the shooting happened just 200 meters away from the first shooting where a man was shot and killed. Patekile says deceased are between the ages of 26 and 30 years.

“The first scene and this scene are about 200 meters apart, with the same description. We believe that these this information will assist us in our investigation,” Patekile said.
