CAPE TOWN - Western Cape police are on the hunt for suspects linked to a triple murder in Eerste River.

The shooting reportedly happened in the early hours of Sunday morning on Daventry Street, where three men, aged between 18 and 39, were gunned down while sitting in a yard.

“The suspects who fled the scene on foot are yet to be arrested. We appeal to anyone with information which could lead to the arrest of the suspects to please contact Crime Stop on 08600 10111. All information will be dealt with confidentially.”
