A man escaped injury after his vehicle was shot multiple times in Canelands

The shooting victim contacted Reaction Unit South Africa (RUSA) after he abandoned his bakkie and fled on foot to safety.

Reaction Officers were immediately dispatched and located a white Toyota Hilux bakkie on Vincent Dickenson Road.

The bakkie was shot multiple times through the windscreen, passenger window and tailgate.

According to the victim, he had just left his family farm in Canelands – KZN after conducting a prayer.
