The gang war in Kewtown is a "serious, dangerous" issue according to residents and police, but a complete lockdown in the area in the next two weeks will see the start of a strategic war against crime.The area has been marred by gang violence in the past two months with residents, including young children, experiencing shootings daily. For the past few years gang activity has increased in the months before the festive season and Kewtown is one of four crime hotspots known for drug and gang activity. Yesterday the MEC for Community Safety, Lennit Max, police, metro police and community leaders visited the area to discuss the problems with residents, and declared war on drug dealers and gangsters.
