Court postpones case of man accused in Reiger Park murders

Two police officers and two civilians were shot dead in Reiger Park on Saturday.

The court has postponed the case of Reegan Collins, a 23-year-old man accused in connection with the Reiger Park murders. Collins appeared in the Boksburg Magistrate’s Court on the 25th of the month for a formal bail application. At the time of his arrest, Collins had been out on bail for two separate counts of murder and two cases of attempted murder.

He is currently facing four counts of murder and possession of unlicensed firearms. The incident resulted in the deaths of several anti-gang unit members and two civilians. Police kept a close watch on proceedings as Collins, visibly shaken, stood in the dock.
