Two people, including a teenager, were killed after a shooting incident on Thursday night in Bloemendal in Gqeberha's Northern Areas.

Police spokesperson Colonel Priscilla Naidu says they were called out to the crime scene in Lawrence Erasmus Drive where they found two men lying on the ground.

She says 25-year-old Justin Malgas sustained multiple gunshot wounds and was declared dead on scene while another 26-year-old was rushed to hospital with a gunshot wound to his head and arm.

Colonel Naidu says a teenager, who was outside his yard, was hit by a stray bullet in the back and died on his way to the hospital.

He was identified as 14-year-old Kurtley Rossouw.

It is alleged that shots were fired at Malgas and his friend by suspects driving in a Silver Renault vehicle.

Colonel Naidu says the incident is gang-related.

No arrests have been made.
