Two people were killed and six others were wounded when unknown suspects opened fire on a popular restaurant on 7th Street.Gauteng police are calling for anyone with further information on the drive-by shooting to come forward.“It was not the first time that there was shooting randomly with a car that is unknown, unregistered, unmarked. It was just a fight, three coloured guys and one black guy. They fought and dispersed, went to Liquid Blue and the other clubs. The fight happened here.

He says he fears that the incident will have a negative impact on their business and it may also affect international tourism. “We are all affected and it’s not just us as business people but it’s also for Melville, Johannesburg and the country. At the moment, we have guests from Holland, obviously, it won’t make a good impression and they will tell their family and friends in Holland what they had experienced here,” explains Niemand.Residents of Melville say crime in their area has gotten out of hand and they are terrified. Some residents describe how they are feeling following the shooting.

“Obviously we are shocked at what goes on around here. Melville is a really vibey area and it’s full of these beautiful and fun restaurants. Why do people want to come with aggression and just grab guns and shoot others? This is what happens in Melville, certain places operate as restaurants and they do not have entertainment licenses but they have loud music and DJs up to 3 in the morning. I never imagined there would be killings and injuries down the road from where I live,” residents say.

Whatever you do in the dark will eventually come out to the light and we will catch them and deal with them SAPS will fulfil its task. Condolences to those who lost they're loved ones and healing to those who are injured God be with you
