Gunmen kill 27 in two South African township shootings

Gunmen killed at least 27 people in two township shootings near Johannesburg and Cape Town hours apart, South African police said on Sunday. Eight gunmen killed 17 at a Wedela bar on Saturday night, and 10 died at a Lwandle venue early on Sunday. No arrests have been made, and police are examining a possible illegal mining turf war behind the bar attack.
