Search for gunmen who killed four people in Umlazi
A manhunt is under way after four people were
shot dead in Umlazi, south of Durban.
The murders took place at the Uganda informal settlement on Thursday night.
Police say a group of friends had been drinking inside a shack when at least six suspects stormed in and demanded cellphones.
It's alleged when they refused to hand them over, one of the assailants drew a gun and shot dead three people.
The suspects are said to have come across another man walking towards the shack as they were fleeing.

He was also shot and killed.
KwaZulu-Natal police say while the motive of the killings is yet to be established, robbery cannot be ruled out.
They are appealing to anyone who might have information on the whereabouts of the suspects to contact their nearest police station or contact the CRIME STOP number 08600 10111.
