Two arrested in connection with attempted murder in Cape Town

Two suspected gang members have been arrested in Eerste River in Cape Town in connection with attempted murder.

Police spokesperson, Malcolm Pojie, says the two were linked to a shooting in Kleinvlei earlier in March.

Pojie says members of the Anti-Gang Unit followed up on information which led them to two separate residences where they apprehended the 18 and 22 year-old suspects.

The officers also confiscated a pistol believed to be the weapon used in the crime. The suspects will appear in the Blue Down’s Magistrate’s Court on Wednesday.
