The Lenasia Extension 13 community apprehended three boys between the ages of 15 and 19 following an assault on a man in the area.
The man who died in hospital recently is alleged to have been hit on the head with a brick by the perpetrators in what seems to have been a robbery.
Pulsate Ambulance Services were called to the scene. After minutes of resuscitation of the patient, they transported him to hospital with severe trauma to the head.
Police arrived on scene after the man was transported to hospital and opened a case.
The three, two of whom were released into the care of their parents and one remained in custody, appeared at the Protea Magistrates Court on Monday, April 4. The case was postponed for further investigations.
“We are investigating a case of assault with intent to cause grievous bodily harm, investigations are still continuing,” said Lenasia SAPS spokesperson, Captain Hector Netshivodza.
