Edenvale school shooting: 5 suspects hijacked pupil's Uber

While a fourth man believed to have been involved in the robbery and subsequent shooting at the Edenvale High School on Thursday has been apprehended, police are still on the hunt for five more suspects who fled the scene after allegedly hijacking an Uber cab.
SAPS spokesperson Captain Kay Makhubele told News24 that the Uber had been dispatched to pick up a pupil when it was hijacked by the men.
The Uber driver was forced to drop the men at a location that police cannot disclose as investigations are continuing, Makhubele said.
The driver then reported the incident to the Johannesburg Central police station once the suspects had been dropped off. His statement has been taken and police are investigating.

If what I have heard is correct, the robbers were shot and apprehended by the school security services. The police only rocked up 20-30 minutes later.

If correct, quite disgusting. I guess walking next door is just too difficult for our popo.

School staff sent a voice note to the Edenvale Community Policing Forum (CPF) and officials responded swiftly. A shootout ensued.

Well, to be fair according to google maps its a 5min drive, have to finish up, get in car, and can be traffic, so, 20-30min is about right;)

No wonder students are carrying knives at school... It's to protect them from the real crims. At this junction, I think it's safe to say criminals do not fear SAPS or the law.

Time to get strapped, cause apparently it's only law abiding civilians that don't carry, and that's not fair.
 
This is the third such robbery / attempted robbery in a week.

13 Feb - Dowerglen High (Edenvale) - pupil shot in class room by stray bullet
21 Feb - Edenvale High (Edenvale) - as per article
21 Feb - Norkem Park High (Kempton Park) - R25,000 stolen

The dead ones and the arrested ones will disagree.
