When I read this story I am really shocked at the quality of this article and how it was written. As a former founding editor of News24 I wonder how on earth you can charge people to read such badly written articles.

Even the name of the township sounds ridiculously suspicious.
'At least'like seriously, that an insult you can't say that lives has been lost here☹️
Poisoning or maybe gas leak could be the cause here! No guns, no stampede ....than what?
