MOSSEL BAY NEWS - The seven people arrested in connection with the Herbertsdale shooting that left four people injured on Sunday afternoon, 6 July, appeared in the Mossel Bay Magistrate’s Court yesterday, 8 July.
Their case was not enrolled in court due to outstanding documents, and they have been released from police custody. The case is expected to be enrolled again once all the documents are in place.
The KwaNonqaba Police Station’s spokesperson, Warrant Officer Kappie Kapp, previously told Mossel Bay Advertiser that at about 13:00 on Sunday, a shooting incident had taken place between two groups of people.
