A 39-year-old man who handed himself over to police after shooting a 47-year-old man over the weekend was denied bail.
The man was shot during a fight between his son and another youngster at the corners of Gladioli and Lilac Street in Lenasia Extension 2.
The incident occurred at around 9am on Saturday, September 2.
It is alleged the youngsters from two different families got involved in a fight when their fathers also got involved.
“One parent pulled out a gun and shot the other several times,” said Lenasia SAPS spokesperson, Captain Hector Netshivhodza.
The man was rushed to the Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital by family members. He, however, died at the hospital.
The man appeared at the Lenasia Magistrates’ Court on charges of murder and was denied bail.
Investigations are continuing.
