Motorists are advised of a serious security incident on the N12 Westbound before the Diepkloof Interchange.

Due to an active shooting incident, all lanes have been blocked off to traffic to allow for investigation and scene management.

Law Enforcement and Emergency Medical Services are currently on-site. Heavy traffic delays are building up in the area as motorists attempt to divert.

Motorists are strongly urged to avoid the N12 West heading towards Uncle Charlie’s and the Diepkloof Interchange. Please exercise extreme caution when approaching the vicinity.
