Heard on the radio this morning that there had been a shooting this morning in a house in Rocklands Mitchell's Plain, and that 5 people were dead...
I cant seem to find any info relating to this incident.. does anyone know anything or has anyone heard or seen any reports?
Did I imagine hearing this?
I speak under correction, but I think I heard Pakistani's being involved.

Five people have been killed in Rocklands, Mitchells Plain, in Cape Town during a robbery, Western Cape police said on Wednesday.

"Two unidentified men entered the house, allegedly used as a bakery, and demanded the safe, [and] fired shots at six occupants," Colonel Tembinkosi Kinana said.

"Four people were killed during the incident, whilst two were critically injured and rushed to the hospital. One of the two victims later died in hospital, which brought the number of people killed to five."

The attackers took a safe and fled the scene, around 10pm on Tuesday. The six were Pakistanis.

A 28-year-old man was arrested and would appear in the Mitchells Plain Magistrate's Court soon. Police recovered one firearm and the safe. Cases of murder and house robbery had been opened.
 
Thanks.... (so I'm not insane.. not yet anyway)

Very tragic.... could they have put up a fight and thus were shot?
