The violence occurred at Stellenbosch’s Cubana in Plein Street, and it is suspected that the shooter was after a gang member, reports News24.

News24 understands, according to sources, the 28s gang member who was targeted early on Saturday had been near the club shortly before the shooting.

When he neared the entrance to it, rival armed gang members went after him.
