Eastern Cape police management has issued a warning against communities, to refrain from looting and setting fire to Somali-owned shops in Port Elizabeth.
Provincial police spokesperson, Brigadier Marinda Mills, issued a statement on Sunday evening following the weekend's unrest in New Brighton and KwaZakhele.
The trouble started after a 30-year-old man was shot dead in New Brighton.
He was allegedly involved in an altercation with a shop owner over air time.
Mills says the public order policing unit is patrolling the affected areas.
