The motorist, believed to be around 30 years old, was still seated in a car riddled with bullet holes on the corners of Waltloo and Simon Vermooten roads.
Johannesburg – A motorist died after his luxury vehicle was targeted by gunmen in Waltloo in Silverton on Monday night.
“He was declared deceased on arrival. The motive for the shooting and the events surrounding it are unclear and will form the subject of a SA Police Service investigation,” said Van Reenen. “Once the vehicle had stopped, he was approached by an unknown number of suspects, who robbed and shot him,” he said.
The suspects targeted motorists by placing spikes on the road, then robbed them at gunpoint when they were forced to stop due to punctures.
