Police probing late-night shooting in South Ruimveldt

Police are investigating an alleged shooting incident that occurred around 23:30 hrs on Sunday night at Toucan Drive, South Ruimveldt.
According to a police report, the incident took place at the residence of a 34-year-old gold miner, who lives at the address in a two-storey wooden and concrete house with his wife and stepdaughter.
The miner told investigators that he had returned from the interior earlier that day, at approximately 11:00h. He reported that later that night, while he and his reputed wife were asleep, they were jolted awake by two loud explosions, believed to be gunshots.
Upon inspection, he said he noticed that a glass window in the house had been shattered. He also found two metal fragments on the floor of the bedroom, which are suspected to be parts of discharged ammunition. He said he looked outside immediately after the noise but did not see anyone in the vicinity.
Crime scene detectives later processed the scene and confirmed the presence of the two metal fragments in the bedroom. Several residents in the area were questioned, but no useful information was obtained, police said.
No injuries were reported, and investigations into the incident are ongoing.
