Johannesburg bus taxi driver shoot dead

Crime correspondent Yusuf Abramjee reported a taxi shooting in Tembisa, Ekurhuleni, where a victim was shot dead, sharing a nighttime photo of police vehicles and a gathered crowd at the scene.

News accounts detail a 53-year-old taxi owner killed in the Esangweni section after parking his vehicle, with suspects fleeing following a shootout that injured a police officer.
The incident fits a pattern of taxi violence in Gauteng driven by competition between associations over routes and territories, contributing to frequent targeted killings in the industry.
