“[They] shot and killed the owner and two other people who were working at the workshop,” Netshiunda said.
Three of the deceased victims were aged in their 50s and the other two are reported to be in their late 30s.
“Though the motive of the killings is yet to be established, nothing was reported stolen during the shootings,” said Netshiunda.
