A disturbing shooting incident involving a lone gunman chasing three men in broad daylight has been captured on video, which has since gone viral. The attack occurred on Sunday afternoon, resulting in one fatality and two injuries.

The 17-second video footage shows six individuals running along Himalaya Street in Heather Park, Eerste River, Western Cape. During the chaos, one man falls while others continue to flee as gunshots are fired.

The gunman, dressed in a cap, blue top, and grey shorts, is seen approaching the group with a firearm. He repeatedly shoots the man who fell and continues to fire at another individual wearing a white top and red pants as he tries to escape.

Police spokesperson Sergeant Wesley Twigg confirmed that a 36-year-old man was killed, and two others were injured. “According to reports, the victims were sitting outside when they were approached by an unknown man who took out a firearm and shot them.

“The victims were taken to a medical facility for treatment, where the 36-year-old victim was declared deceased upon arrival. The other victims are receiving treatment. The suspect fled the scene and is yet to be arrested,” stated Twigg.

Kleinvlei detectives are currently investigating a case of murder and two cases of attempted murder.
