Records

Martinique village, in the Villa Nora police area (police, via TimesLIVE). No address. TimesLIVE's opening line says Abbotspoort village, but its own account places the shooting in Martinique; the owner chose Martinique (22 Oct). The pin is the Martinique village point on OpenStreetMap, inside the Villa Nora police precinct; approximate, village level (about 3 km). The suspect's body was found later at Botshabelo Section, Tom Burke police area; that place is not pinned.

Inside a barbershop in Paulsberg Street, Tafelsig (police, via Cape Times). Shop not located. The pin is the middle of Paulsberg Street in OpenStreetMap (way 32214287); it marks the street, not the shop.

Military Road, Steenberg (SAPS statement, quoted via Cape Times). Exact spot not given. The pin marks the shooting only, not Kirstenhof (where the car was abandoned) or Lakeside (where the arrests reportedly were). The pin is a point on Military Road in Steenberg (OpenStreetMap way 316992334), the owner's choice of two Military Road points about 114 m apart; no source gives anything finer than the road.

Angela Street, Valhalla Park (police, via Daily Voice); in a vlei or canal. The spot on the water is not given. The pin is the middle of Angela Street in OpenStreetMap (way 30690124), which OSM labels Nooitgedacht/Elsies River; the street also holds the Valhalla Park Community Centre. It marks the street, not where the body lay.

At his parental home in Masoyi; he lived at Bhekiswayo Trust (police, via Lowvelder). No address. Bhekiswayo Trust was not found in the place-name lookups; the pin is the Masoyi residential-area point on OpenStreetMap, inside the Masoyi police precinct; approximate, area level (about 6 km). It is not the home.

In front of a property in Korvette Road, Strandfontein (police, via Cape Argus). House not given. The pin is a street-level marker for Korvette Road (OpenStreetMap), kept where the builder put it on the owner's decision; it marks the road, not any building or house.

Inside a vehicle at the corner of Bokmakierie Street and 7th Avenue (police, via Daily Voice; Heart FM). The pin is the shared node of the two streets in OpenStreetMap.

Outside a corner shop in Russell Road, Central, Gqeberha (police, via The Herald). Exact shop not named. The pin is a point on Russell Road in Central (OpenStreetMap way 30696735), the owner's choice of two Russell Road points about 48 m apart; no source gives anything finer than the road.

Corner of St Alexander Circle and St Christopher Avenue, St Montague Village (Southern Mail). The pin is the midpoint between the nearest nodes of the two streets in OpenStreetMap (ways 701190631 and 30631994, about 30 m apart).

'In front of a premises in Firethorne, near Geelhout Street' (police, via Athlone News); address not given. 'Firethorne' is not a suburb or street in OpenStreetMap. The pin is INFERRED: the midpoint of Geelhout Road, Bonteheuwel (OSM ways 704572595 and 30349364, about 448 m), which meets Firethorn Street (OSM way 30349369) at both ends of its loop, inside the Bishop Lavis police area per the 22 Oct source check. The spelling differs (Firethorn) and the article gives no street-level location; the point marks the area, not the scene. OSM 'Geelhout Street' in the Lotus River area (Ward 65) is a different street and is not used.

Mbulawa Location, Mqanduli, after a chase on the R411 towards Coffee Bay (SAPS). Mbulawa is not in OpenStreetMap or GeoNames; the pin is GeoNames' point for Mqanduli town, inside the Mqanduli SAPS precinct.

Modimola Village, west of Mahikeng, named by SAPS. No street or house is given. The pin is OpenStreetMap's point for Modimola.

Seweding Village, Mahikeng (Mmabatho), named by SAPS. No street or house is given. The pin is OpenStreetMap's point for Seweding.

Corner of Hugenot Street and AZ Berman Drive, Tafelsig. The pin is near the corner; OpenStreetMap spells it Huguenot.

ESTIMATED MAP POINT. Inside his liquor store at Matswale Phase 12, Musina (police, via Limpopo Mirror); no street or address given. Matswale Phase 12 was not found on a map (OpenStreetMap Overpass and Nominatim searches returned no Matswale feature). The pin is the Musina-Nancefield township point from the in-repo gazetteer (GeoNames), used only as a reference inside the Musina police precinct; it is not confirmed that Phase 12 lies in Nancefield. Uncertainty about 5 km. Not the store.

Christmas Tinto Park, opposite Christmas Tinto Primary School and near the Asanda Village Wetland Park, Asanda Village, Strand (Voice of the Cape, District Mail). Daily Voice calls the area Zola Village. The park is not on the map; the pin is about 80 m from the primary school.

Fisher Avenue, Epping 1, named by SAPS. The pin is on that street; the exact spot was not given.

Suria Walk, Hanover Park (exact spot not given). The pin is on the walkway.

A farm between Overhex and MaGwaleni, Zwelethemba, outside Worcester. The farm is not named, so the pin marks the general area.

At a house in Nkuri-Tomu village, near Giyani (police, via Jacaranda FM and Daily Sun). No address. The pin is the Ka-Nkuri village point on OpenStreetMap, inside the Giyani police precinct; approximate, village level (about 4 km). Tomu is part of the village name in the reports and is not separately mapped.

Komkhulu locality, Konkwana administrative area, near Willowvale (SAPS). Neither place is in OpenStreetMap, and GeoNames' places named Komkhulu are in other municipalities. The pin is Willowvale town, the same point as the Willowvale Extension 1 pin; the homestead may be well outside town.

Trekker Road near an Engen garage, Khayelitsha. Trekker Road could not be found on the map, so the pin is a general Khayelitsha point, not the scene.

ESTIMATED MAP POINT. Sekurung village and Sekurung Mountain, in the Lebowakgomo police area (police, via Review Online and Limpopo Chronicle). The village could not be placed on a map: place-name lookups found no Sekurung, and two OpenStreetMap searches returned no data at all, so whether it is mapped is neither confirmed nor ruled out. The pin is on the Lebowakgomo police station (SAPS station point), used only as a reference for the police area that handled the case. It is not the scene or the village. The village may be anywhere in the Lebowakgomo police area, up to about 32 km from the pin. Being near the Mamaolo pin is not a link.

At a residence in Malope Section, in the Masemola police area, Sekhukhune District (police, on X). No address. Malope Section could not be confirmed on a map: OpenStreetMap has a place called Malope about 12 km west of the Masemola police station, but nothing shows it is this section. The pin is the Ga-Masemola town point (the owner's choice, 22 Oct), wide enough (about 15 km) to cover both. It is not the scene.

Sebothe Street, Soweto-on-Sea (SAPS). The street is not in OpenStreetMap; the pin is OpenStreetMap's point for Soweto on Sea, inside the Kwazakele precinct, whose police are investigating.

Teenage Vuso Street, Zone 5, Langa (exact spot not given). The pin is on the street.

ESTIMATED MAP POINT. Rostock village, outside Burgersfort, in the Mecklenburg police area (police, via TimesLIVE and SABC News). The village could not be placed on a map: place-name lookups found no Rostock village, and two OpenStreetMap searches returned no data at all, so whether the village is mapped is neither confirmed nor ruled out. The pin is on the Mecklenburg police station (SAPS station point), used only as a reference for the police area that handled the case. It is not the scene, the village or the hospital. The village may be anywhere in the Mecklenburg police area, up to about 27 km from the pin.

Gardenia Street, Duncan Village, KuGompo City (East London), per the Hawks. The only Gardenia Street OpenStreetMap finds in KuGompo City is in Lennox Estate, not Duncan Village, so it was not used. The pin is GeoNames' point for Duncan Village, inside the Duncan Village SAPS precinct.

A house in Green Haven, Wolwedans, Great Brak River. The pin is the Greenhaven area point, not the house.

ESTIMATED MAP POINT. In the bushes in the Neltox area, Tshamutumbu policing area, near the Zimbabwe border (police, via Limpopo Mirror). Neltox was not found on a map (OpenStreetMap Overpass and Nominatim searches returned no Neltox feature). The pin is the Tshamutumbu SAPS station point (in-repo gazetteer, station points v1.2.5, 2021), used only as a reference; uncertainty is the farthest point of the Tshamutumbu precinct outline from the station, 34.5 km, rounded up to 35 km. Not the scene. Its own precinct, so not merged into Musina.

Corner of Reindeer Street, Wesbank (exact spot not given). OpenStreetMap has it as Reindeer Crescent; the pin is on it.

Belgravia, Athlone. Suburb only, so the pin is the suburb's map point, not the scene.

ESTIMATED MAP POINT. A farm near Amersfoort, Gert Sibande District (police, via The Citizen). The farm is not named. The pin is on the Amersfoort police station (SAPS station point), used only as a reference; the report does not name the station. It is not the scene. The farm may be anywhere in the Amersfoort police area, up to about 43 km from the pin.

Cafda Village, Retreat. Reports differ on the street (Ensor or Enzo), so the pin is the suburb's map point.

Kgaka Street, Ipelegeng, Schweizer-Reneke (Taung Daily News). No spot on the street is given. The pin is the middle of Kgaka Street as OpenStreetMap maps it, the only street of that name in Schweizer-Reneke. OpenStreetMap does not label the township, so that this street is in Ipelegeng rests on the report. Police station not named.

At a family meeting in Lillydale Trust, in the Calcutta police area (police, via Lowvelder). No address given. The pin is the Lillydale village point from the place-name list, inside the Calcutta police precinct; approximate, village level (about 4 km). The place-name list files that point under Limpopo; the place is in Bushbuckridge, Mpumalanga, and the pin falls inside the Mpumalanga Calcutta precinct.

Open field between D'Almeida and Albert Luthuli Park, near Mountain View, Mossel Bay. The field is not on the map, so the pin is the D'Almeida suburb point.

Kuzwayo Street, KwaZakhele (SAPS). OpenStreetMap has three short streets of that name within about 1 km, all in the New Brighton precinct, whose officers responded. The pin is the one not labelled Soweto on Sea; the exact spot is not given.

OR Tambo Road, Imizamo Yethu (exact spot not given). The pin is on the road.

St Bernard Street, St Montague Village (exact spot not given). OpenStreetMap has it as Saint Bernard Crescent; the pin is on it.

Jakkalsvlei Avenue, Bonteheuwel (exact spot not given). The pin is on the Bonteheuwel end of the avenue.

Willowvale Extension 1 informal settlement, near Ematyotyombeni, Willowvale (SAPS, Dispatch). The settlement is not mapped; the pin is GeoNames' point for Willowvale town, inside the Willowvale SAPS precinct.

Mtshekisani Street, in the Kwadwesi or Kwazakele policing precinct (SAPS gives both). The street is not in OpenStreetMap; the pin is OpenStreetMap's point for the KwaDwesi suburb, so it may be some way off.

Muir Court, Depsiton Crescent, Lavender Hill. Muir Court is not on the map, so the pin is Depsiton Crescent.

Masikhanye, Site B, Khayelitsha. Masikhanye could not be found on the map, so the pin is a general Site B point, not the scene.

Belgravia Road, outside Heatherdale Primary School, Athlone. The pin is the school; the exact spot on the road is not given.

Doornpan Farm, outside Ottosdal, about 17 km from the town's police station (Klerksdorp Record, DA). No source gives the farm's position. The pin is a place-name database's point for a Doornpan farm about 19 km south-west of Ottosdal (GeoNames, via Mapcarta), which may not be the same farm. Municipality not confirmed: that database puts it in Tswaing (Ngaka Modiri Molema district), but if the farm is in Maquassi Hills it is in the Dr Kenneth Kaunda district. The DA calls it the Ottosdal/Wolmaransstad area.

A remote mountainous part of Mashawana mountain; the report names the communities of Mashawana and Dzwerani, Thulamela municipality, and Thohoyandou police are investigating. The mountain is not in the gazetteer or OpenStreetMap, so the pin is the Dzwerani village point from GeoNames. That point falls just inside the Vuwani precinct outline, about 3.3 km from the Thohoyandou precinct edge, so the scene is probably a few kilometres from the pin. Approximate, village level (about 6 km).

Mawethu Tavern, Bholotwa, named by Komani News; the tavern itself is not mapped. The pin is OpenStreetMap's point for Bolotwa village (Intsika Yethu, Chris Hani), which lies in the SAPS Bholothwa precinct (2019 boundaries). Another Bolotwa in Mbhashe (GeoNames) was not used: the report names Bholotwa police and comes from a Chris Hani paper. Municipality not stated by any source.

A house in Kliplokasie on Volmoed farm, Oudtshoorn. The farm house is not on the map, so the pin is the Volmoed area point.

Nasson Street, Hawston (exact spot not given). The pin is on the street.

ESTIMATED MAP POINT. Thusi Village, near Ermelo (police, via Highvelder News; Ermelo dateline and Ermelo Magistrate's Court). The village could not be placed on a map: the place-name lookups found no Thusi village, and a nearby colliery point mentioned in the review note could not be confirmed from the saved lookups. The pin is on the Ermelo police station (SAPS station point), used only as a reference; the report does not name the station. It is not the scene. The village may be anywhere in the Ermelo police area, up to about 44 km from the pin.

At his tavern business premises at Ga-Mphahlele, Maribeng Section, Mamaolo village, outside Lebowakgomo (police, via SABC News). Address not given.
