Johannesburg - A man was shot dead and his girlfriend was seriously injured after a shooting in Reiger Park on the East Rand of Johannesburg, Gauteng police said on Friday.

Lieutenant Colonel Katleho Mogale said the 47-year-old man and his girlfriend were sitting in a car on Thursday night when they were approached by a white BMW with four occupants.

"One of the occupants fired shots at the couple's vehicle, killing the man and injuring his girlfriend."

This is the second shooting on the East Rand following a similar attack on a couple in Edenvale on Wednesday.

Gavin Adams, 39, and his wife, Leila were shot by three balaclava-clad men who drove a silver Renault with tinted windows.

The man was shot dead and his wife was rushed to a nearby hospital in a serious condition, Mogale said.

She declined to speculate if the two murders were gang related.

"We are still investigating and it is not clear if the murders are related to each other or gang related."

Mandatory comment: I'll guess and say that they're related.
 
Who bothers with this? This is South Africa 2012 after all. Watch people discussing my comment instead of the killing.

Johannesburg - A man has been arrested in connection with a shooting in Reiger Park on the East Rand, Gauteng police said on Friday.

The 27-year-old man was arrested in Cosmo Street shortly after Thursday night's incident, said Lieutenant Colonel Katleho Mogale.

His cellphone and vehicle were seized by police.

Johnny Jacobs, 47, and his girlfriend were sitting in a car when they were approached by a white BMW with four occupants.

"One of the occupants fired shots at the couple's vehicle, killing the man and injuring his girlfriend," said Mogale.

This is the second shooting on the East Rand following a similar attack on a couple in Edenvale on Wednesday.

Gavin Adams, 39, and his wife, Leila were shot by three balaclava-clad men who drove a silver Renault with tinted windows.

The man was shot dead and his wife was rushed to a nearby hospital in a serious condition, Mogale said.
She declined to speculate if the two murders were gang-related.

"We are still investigating and it is not clear if the murders are related to each other or gang-related."

Adams was allegedly the head of a gang called the Dogan Gang. Jacobs was apparently killed in retaliation for Adams’ murder.

@intel8080 Come at me bro.

@killadoob I would've posted the article of the 24 murdered people in Soweto but I checked the Sowetan and not even they have that.

Knew it was gang related.
 
I have access to the CAS system. I don't see the 24 murders in Soweto you talk about. Mind you, lots of crime happened in Soweto on Wednesday/Thursday but see nothing what you are claiming. Which gangs were involved? At which mortuary have the bodies been taken? WTF won't surprise me a bit though. Things is maar deurmakaar in die nuwe polisie van ons land Suid Afrika :D
