Emergency services said the scene on the corner of Rick Turner Road and Queen Marry Avenue was still active early on Wednesday afternoon.

 

It's understood a group of suspects were involved in a shootout with officers before crashing the car they were in. 

 

ALS Paramedic's Garrith Jamieson said medics attended to some of them.

 

"Three occupants suspected to be criminals have been caught by the SAPS, with two suspected gunshot wounds. They will be transported to a hospital for the further care they require."

 

A third suspect was arrested.

 

Jamieson says the entire intersection has been closed off with various police officials and forensics on the scene.

 

It comes several days after two suspects were killed in a shootout with police at an upmarket estate in Ballito.

 

Police say they were linked to last week's shooting at a Richards Bay shopping centre in which five people were murdered.
