SA police says rapper AKA was assassinated

South African police say evidence gathered to date leads them to believe the killing of the rapper AKA on Saturday was an assassination.

The police commissioner of KwaZulu-Natal province, Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi, said the gunman had approached Kiernan Forbes from behind and shot him at close range in the side of the head.

A second gunman then started firing to deter onlookers from getting involved.

One of these rounds killed the friend with AKA, Tibz Motsoane.
