Firearms used to commit most murders in first quarter of 2022, says WC SAPS

The South African Police Service (SAPS) in the Western Cape on Monday said most murders during the first quarter of this year were committed using a firearm.

According to the latest crime statistics released in August, 498 people were killed by perpetrators using a gun during the months of April and June of this year.

The staggering numbers are a concern for police who say that during this time more than 600 guns were also confiscated.

Western Cape police commissioner Thembisile Patekile said: “We have now retrieved 632 firearms and arrested people. It takes time to trace the number of these firearms.”
