(CNN) — Officers are searching for about a dozen suspects after at least nine people were killed in a shooting in the South African city of Johannesburg during Sunday’s early hours, police said.
The attack took place at 1 a.m. at a tavern in Bekkersdal, a township to the city’s southwest, also wounding 10 others, according to a post on X by police.
“It is reported that about 12 unknown suspects in a white kombi and a silver sedan opened fire at tavern patrons and continued to shoot randomly as they fled the scene,” the South African Police Service said, calling for witnesses to provide information.
