Provincial SAPS spokesperson Robert Netshiunda says two gunmen stormed a home in Mzomusha area on Friday night.

"It is reported that two male victims, aged 31 and 35-years-old, were outside the house when two suspects arrived and opened fire at them, killing them instantly.”

Netshiunda says they then stormed the home and accosted a 29-year-old woman, demanding money, and drugs from her.

"A scuffle reportedly ensued between one suspect at the identified woman which led to her being shot multiple times. The suspects allegedly searched her and took an undisclosed amount of money," he said.

"A 14-year-old girl was also shot multiple times and died at the scene. A woman who was inside the house and a man who reportedly managed to leave the room after hearing the first gunshot sounds, survived the shooting unscathed."

He said while robbery appears to be the likely motive in the attack, police are not ruling out the possibility of a drug-related feud.

A manhunt is underway for the gunmen.
