South African authorities say nine people were killed and at least 10 others injured after gunmen opened fire on a pub early Sunday morning in Bekkersdal, west of Johannesburg.
Police said 12 suspects arrived on scene, some in a white minibus and others in a silver sedan, and shot at KwaNoxolo Tavern before fleeing.
A manhunt for the suspects is under way.
This is the second mass shooting in South Africa in just a few weeks.
Earlier this month, at least 11 people were killed and 13 others wounded in a shooting at an unlicensed bar in Pretoria, about 100 kilometres away.
