Attempted murder probe after boy shot in classroom at Atteridgeville school | Pretoria News

Pretoria - Police are investigating a case of attempted murder after a Grade 6 pupil was shot and wounded while in a classroom at school. While police say the motive of the shooting is still unknown, parents suspect it is gang-related.

“The story does not add up at all. How is it that parents were never informed about this from the start. We’ve been conducting our own investigation but no one is willing to come out with information not even the pupils themselves. "We want the school to assure parents that our children are safe here because last year there was also a stabbing incident, at this very school,” one of the residents said.

She said she saw a teacher driving out of the school premises with the victim inside, shortly after the incident around 1pm.
