This morning Netcare 911 paramedics responded to a horrific shooting in Beach Road Doonside on the Natal South Coast. Exact detail to the shooting will form part of the South African Police investigation.
Paramedics arrived at the scene and found that five people had been shot. Two people were in a critical condition while another two died before our arrival, a fifth person escaped with a flesh wound.
Paramedics started to resuscitate a critically wounded man but despite two services working hand in hand for about an hour, the patient was declared dead at the scene leaving the death toll at three. The critically wounded female was stabilised and then transported to a local hospital for the care that she required. The other patient was treated at the scene but refused transportation to hospital.
