Botha said, "It was chaotic and very confusing for everybody that was here."

"A lot of people weren’t aware of what was going on. But did I hear the gunshot…There we were milling around trying to figure out what was going on."

"There was a handful of medical persons who were attending to quite a large amount of people that were shot. We jumped in to assist the injured patients."
