A mass shooting at a tavern in Johannesburg's Soweto township has killed 15 people and left others in critical condition, according to police in South Africa.
The number of cartridges found on the scene indicates that a group of people opened fire in the bar, said Gauteng province police commissioner Lt. Gen. Elias Mawela.
"All of a sudden they heard some gunshots, that is when people tried to run out of the tavern. We don't have the full details at the moment of what is the motive, and why they were targeting these people," he said. The area where the shooting took place was very dark, making it harder to find people who could identify the suspects, he said.
In a separate incident, four people were shot dead by unknown gunmen at a tavern in Sweetwaters township in the coastal city of Pietermaritzburg on Saturday night.
