Photos from the scene show Kotze's vehicle riddled with bullets.
His friend, Janus Horn believes it is a miracle that he is still alive."He sustained injuries to his back, under his arm, upper leg and lower leg. He is presently in ICU in hospital. It is an absolute miracle that he is still alive," said Horn.
"The bullet missed his spinal cord and his heart. We just hope he is going to make it."
"Daryl is the friendliest guy you will ever meet and would never harm a fly. He is a family man, a father of two children and takes great pride in the job he does," continued Horn.

The exact motive behind the shooting is still unclear at this stage.
No arrests have been made.
