Anti-Gang Unit detectives are investigating a triple murder in Rocklands, Mitchells Plain.

A 15-year-old girl was also shot and wounded in the attack at a residence in Viscount Street on Tuesday afternoon.

According to police spokesperson, Colonel Andrè Traut, preliminary reports indicate that a grey vehicle stopped in front of the house and three balaclava-clad males allegedly entered the residence and opened fire on the occupants before fleeing the scene.

It’s believed the attack, which left a 39-year-old woman and two men dead, is gang-related. Several spent cartridges and other exhibits were recovered from the crime scene. These will form part of the police investigation.
