The X post from crime news account @sa_crime
Details the fatal shooting of 28-year-old DJ Oscar Nyathi (aka Oscar Baxx of Malumz on Decks) and one other man outside Blue Valley Golf Estate in Midrand, Johannesburg, on May 28, 2026.
Four occupants in a Toyota vehicle were ambushed by two suspects on motorbikes who dismounted and opened fire; the driver and front passenger died at the scene while the rear passengers were injured and hospitalized.
Police are investigating it as a possible targeted hit linked to organized crime, with public discussion on X noting similarities to cartel-style executions and broader patterns of violence in South Africa’s music and entertainment scenes.
