In the early hours of Saturday morning, our Centurion crew responded to Olievenhoutbosh informal settlement for a shooting incident.
Members of Tracker South Africa, Tshwane Metro Police and Olievenhoutbosh SAPS responded to the area for a reported hijacking. Upon their arrival, they found that a man had sustained a gunshot wound to his back during the alleged hijacking incident.
Our crew tended to the man’s wounds and monitored the patient’s condition until the ambulance arrived on the scene.
The man was transported to a nearby hospital in a stable condition by Gauteng Emergency Medical Services.
The exact circumstances surrounding the incident are not yet clear, and police have opened an investigation.
Thanks to Tracker South Africa , Tshwane Metro Police Department , Gauteng Emergency Medical Services , and Olievenhoutbosh SAPS for the assistance on the scene.
