Four men and two women were shot dead in Kagiso on Gauteng's West Rand on Saturday night.

Three men and one woman were injured.

Police spokesperson, Brigadier Brenda Muridili, said a gunman entered a house in the area and shot the owner, his girlfriend and a neighbour.

"On the suspect's way out, he is alleged to have continued to shoot randomly," Muridili said.

"The street was busy as there was a wedding celebration nearby. Two more people were certified dead on the scene and two were rushed to hospital [for treatment for their] gunshot wounds."

Muridili said a case of murder and attempted murder would be opened.
