Three in court for suspected Wentworth gang shooting
Three suspects accused of shooting a man in a gang-related attack in Wentworth will line up in Durban Magistrate's Court on Wednesday.
The Hawks arrested the trio on Sunday, after a 9mm pistol and 14 rounds of ammunition were found at the service station after the attack that left the man wounded.
KZN Hawks spokesperson Simphiwe Mhlongo says the men, aged between 18 and 26 years, will be charged with attempted murder.

"The suspects allegedly assaulted the victims in one of the service station in Wentworth and they fired shots towards him and it was suspected that the shooting is related to gangs as a result the Hawks were roped in the investigation and the suspects were then arrested."
Meanwhile, a 34-year-old suspect facing murder charges for allegedly killing a man at the Umhlanga Pier on Tuesday is also expected to appear in court.
It's alleged he got into a fight with the 36-year-old victim, before drawing a firearm.
Both men were with their families on the pier.
