The accused in the Reiger Park shooting apply for bail
Two women and two police officers were killed in Reiger Park last month.
Three men accused of the Reiger Park shootings will seek bail in a court hearing on Tuesday, according to the source. Cheslyn Collis, Jamal Meyer and Elvino Crafford are charged with the murders and attempted murders of four people, including two anti-gang unit members and two civilian women. They are also accused of robbery and unlawful possession of firearms and ammunition.
The prosecution opposes their bail application, citing the severity of the charges, the circumstances of the alleged offenses, concerns for community safety, and a potential risk posed by the accused if released on bail. The Hawks have confirmed the arrest of a fourth suspect, who is expected to appear in court alongside the three men and faces charges of possessing an illegal firearm and ammunition.
