A 46-year-old man was shot dead when three gunmen opened fire on him at point-blank range while he was sitting in his blue BMW at a fuel station in Kenilworth, Cape Town, on Saturday night.
A high-speed car chase resulted in the arrest of four suspects shortly afterwards.
The police's Lieutenant-Colonel Andrè Traut said members of the Cape Town K9 Unit had responded swiftly after the shooting at around 6.45pm.
"The suspects’ vehicle in which they fled, a gold Toyota Avanza, was followed by members of the public while they alerted police. K9 Unit members reacted to the broadcast of the incident and spotted the vehicle.
"The high-speed pursuit where shots were exchanged between police and the suspects ended in Jakes Gerwel Drive in Goodwood where the men, aged 20, 25, 29 and 35, were arrested," said Traut.
Two unlicensed 9mm pistols, believed to be the murder weapons, were confiscated.
Investigations revealed that the getaway vehicle was hijacked in Kleinvlei.
Social media identified the slain man as a "gangster", who had survived a previous attack earlier this year.
Traut did not identify the victim.
"The possibility that the incident is gang-related cannot be ruled out and the circumstances surrounding the matter are under police investigation," he said.
Once charged, the four suspects are expected to make a court appearance to face charges of murder, attempted murder, possession of unlicensed firearms and ammunition and possession of a hijacked vehicle.
The Western Cape Provincial Commissioner, Lt-Gen KE Jula, praised the members of the public who alerted police and his members for their quick reaction to ensure that the suspects were arrested "for this brazen attack in a public area".

Update: Hiemmie the hardlivings gang BOSS, is the possible identified victim. The shooters were from the Vikings gang who killed Hiemmie the "Hardlivings" gang boss in retaliation for "hardlivings" who killed Fiekie, their gang boss.

BMW guy seems to have been talking to the perps before they said "I don't much like the tone of your voice"



"BMW For Sale, low miles, new carpets, freshly detailed"

Andy Warhol once said everyone drinks the same Coca Cola. Liz Taylor drinks Coke, the President drinks Coke, the bum on the street drinks Coke and all Cokes are good. You can't buy a better Coke for a billion dollars.

In 2019, the gang bangers have new BMWs and Austrian made Tupperware weapons (Glocks), and so can you. This is progress. Maybe they can mass produce blonde Czech porn stars so every guy in the world can have one with their BMWs.

Did the silly bastards ever realise that one shooter one side and one shooter the other could have resulted in three fatalities instead of the one in the car ! Priceless
