BREAKING: Reiger Park shooting: Second suspect arrested as questions remain over alleged gunman
A second suspect has been arrested in connection with the killing of two Gauteng Anti-Gang Unit officers and two women in Reiger Park, Ekurhuleni last week.
The IOL reports that a second suspect in the Reiger Park shooting, which resulted in the deaths of four individuals, has been arrested. The 24-year-old man was apprehended on Sunday afternoon by a multidisciplinary team of law enforcement agencies, including the Hawks, Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Police Department, SAPS Anti-Gang Unit, and the Flying Squad.
Police maintain that the arrested man is the alleged gunman, Reagan Cheslin Collis, who was initially arrested last week. However, a source familiar with the incident, who has reviewed CCTV footage, disputes this account, claiming Collis may not have been the shooter. Instead, the source suggests that Collis was inside his grandmother's house when the shooting occurred and that another man, wearing a dark hoodie and red tracksuit pants, was the actual gunman.
The suspect is currently facing multiple charges, including four counts of murder and one count of attempted murder. His case has been postponed for a formal bail application.
