Unidentified gunmen have shot and killed 12 in an informal settlement close to Johannesburg in South Africa. 

South African Police say other people were wounded in the deadly shooting incident.

Police say a manhunt is under way for over 10 suspects after the attack on an informal settlement, with the motive yet to be known.

According to South Africa’s security chief, Colonel Dimakatso Nevhuhulwi, “Eight adult males and three adult females were declared dead at the scene.”

He says “The suspects allegedly entered the informal settlement through both entrances and moved through the area, opening fire on residents and community members at multiple locations before fleeing the scene in the same vehicle.”

Another person later died in hospital.
