Reagan Cheslin Collis, Jamal Meyer and Elvino Levert Crafford face four counts of murder following the fatal shooting of two police officers and two women in Reiger Park.
The lawyer representing three men arrested in connection with the killing of two police officers and two women in Reiger Park has urged the Boksburg Magistrate’s Court to play CCTV footage that he says could support his clients’ alibi defences.
Attorney Samkele Kuzani made the application during formal bail proceedings for Reagan Cheslin Collis, 23, Jamal Meyer, 24, and Elvino Levert Crafford, 27.
The three appeared in the Boksburg Magistrate’s Court this week, facing charges arising from the shootings on August 7 in Reiger Park which claimed the lives of Anti-Gang Unit officers Constables Thapelo Tlomatsana, 29, and Sphiwe Sibeko, 28, as well as civilians Roleen Lessing and Jaydin Margerman.
Police have said the officers were conducting crime-prevention patrols in the area when they heard the gunshots which killed the women. They drove towards the source of the gunfire and were allegedly ambushed.
