Multiple bodies have been pulled from the Jukskei River, after flash floods apparently swept away several people in Johannesburg.
Part of Grayston Drive is currently closed as emergency medical services are scouring the area for survivors and more bodies.
According to Private Security company Vision Tactical, at least 20 bodies had been pulled from the river early on Saturday evening.
A source claimed that among the bodies were several members of a church group that were caught in a flash flood following heavy rains in the Atholl area on Saturday afternoon.
It is believed that several of the victims were children.
Johannesburg EMS were reported to be taking control of the scene, but no official confirmation was available at the time of publication.
