In the US this would get you a death sentence, here I'd be surprised if they even catch the perps

EDIT: Oh I misread this as 6 kids shot. It was 1 x grade 6 pupil

Spokesperson Colonel Lungelo Dlamini said a man and his wife had gone to the school to collect their child, who'd just returned from a school trip.

"As they were collecting the child, a group of men in a minibus approached them and fired several shots at the man, who died at the scene.

"A 12-year-old as also shot by a stray bullet and he was rushed to hospital, where he later died."

Taxi industry related perhaps? Poor kid was killed by a stray bullet. RIP. Condolences to families of the deceased.

This is sad, but unfortunately the direct consequence of a current ongoing civil war raging across the whole South Africa.
