The shootings come in the wake of the launch of an Easter Safety campaign by Premier Nomusa Dube-Ncube.

The campaign is aimed at tackling crime and road fatalities during the holiday period.

Dube-Ncube says increases in gun-related crimes are concerning and police visibility will be increased in response.
