Three men have been shot and killed in suspected gang-related violence in Manenberg yesterday respectively.

In the first, unknown suspects driving in a taxi drove up and shot a 19-year-old in the head in Ruimte Road. About 30-minutes later, another 19-year-old was shot and killed while walking with his girlfriend in Renoster Road towards Rio Grande Road. Another group of unknown gunmen fired several shots hitting the teenager at the back of the neck. Later that evening, a 43-year-old was gunned down in Scheldt Walk. He sustained gunshot wounds to his upper body.

All suspects fled the scene and are yet to be arrested.

Three separate cases of murder have been opened for investigation.
