The police described the Saturday night’s attack in Kwandengezi as an execution-style massacre.
The victims were attacked after they were ordered by the gunmen to get down from the car they were in.
After they alighted, the gunmen brutally shot the victims.
However, there was a survivor but the authorities stated that the last victim has already being admitted in the hospital but is in a critical condition.

“They died at the scene.”
