Last Tuesday, police were called to investigate a shooting at Bass Lane and Murchinson Drive around 9pm. When officers arrived, they discovered Williams lying on his back with gunshot wounds in his body. He was taken to the Rand Memorial Hospital, where he died around 3am on Wednesday.
In other crime news, last Friday police conducted an operation in the Garden Villas, Bass Lane, Weddell Avenue and Hearne Lane areas, which are hot spots for criminal activity.
