Residents living in fear: Wentworth councillor
A Wentworth ward councillor says residents are living in fear following a fatal stabbing and a shooting in the Durban south suburb earlier this week.
A man died after being stabbed at a bus stop in the area on Monday. His friend was shot and wounded at a block of flats.
A suspect has been arrested in connection with the stabbing. Police say they are looking into whether the two incidents are related to gang violence.
eThekwini Ward 68 councillor Aubrey Snyman says it can't carry on like this.
"These kind of incidents are experienced quite often. It's sad because youngsters are dying. At the end of the day, parents are trying to get together to resolve these never ending battles," he said.
