POTCHEFSTROOM – The South African Police Service (SAPS) management in the province would like to refute a video doing the rounds on various social media platforms and online news about an apparent shooting incident that left one person dead at a tavern in Zone 2, Letlhabile Location outside Brits.

The alleged incident, which lacks specifics such as date and time, was not reported to the police. At this stage, the information is dismissed as fake and misleading. The public is once more, requested to practice responsible use of social media platforms and desist from sharing unverified information with the potential to cause unnecessary panic amongst our communities.
