Mass Shooting in South Africa Leaves 17 Dead

At least 17 people from a single family were killed when gunmen attacked two homesteads in South Africa early Saturday, the police said, adding to a rising number of mass shootings in the country.

Gunmen opened fire on two separate homesteads as the victims slept, the police said. The victims all belonged to one family, who had gathered for a traditional ceremony in a village outside Lusikisiki, a town in rural Eastern Cape Province, the police told journalists later in television interviews.
