Brief overview:
Eddie (30), a farm Foreman, and Gert F van Wyk (40), were attacked at the farm shop on farm Elandsfontein, Olifantshoek near Kempton Park, by four armed men who pretended to want to buy maize. Edward and Gert were both told to lay on the ground. One of the perpetrators shot Edward killing him instantly. He then pointed the gun at Gert who curled up into a foetal position. The gunman shot Gert in the back, and the bullet went through his intestine and exited. He was taken to hospital in critical condition.
Captain Julia Claasen said the gang of men then went to Gert's home office where they assaulted and robbed his wife, Retha, of R10,000 in cash. They fled the scene in a blue Nissan pickup truck.
