The blaze was reported on Phillip Kgosana drive on Sunday morning, but quickly spread out of control, destroying the Rhodes Memorial restaurant and several UCT buildings. The fire was successfully contained yesterday afternoon, at about 1.30pm.

The family of Lindani Myeni, the South African man who was shot dead in Hawaii, has reportedly described police reports on his shooting as “one-sided”.
