Golden ArrowNews24 reports that a Golden Arrow Bus Services bus crashed into three Cape Town homes after the driver attempted to evade an attack in Delft at around 03:35 on Tuesday morning.

Golden Arrow spokesperson Bronwen Dyke-Beyer said: “A bus transporting Golden Arrow employees was targeted by unknown gunmen. It is not clear what the motive was, but a shot was fired, causing our driver to momentarily lose control of the bus. This caused our bus to collide with the boundary walls of three houses." No injuries were sustained by anyone in the homes. Dyke-Beyer said that the bus driver and another employee had been injured and were receiving medical attention. In 2021, Golden Arrow estimated there had been more than 90 armed robberies of its buses and employees in just five months.
