The murder took place in a parking area at Marine Circle, Bloubergstrand, during the early hours of Sunday. Police said the victim has yet to be identified.

The male suspect is seen getting out of his vehicle and joins the car guard and they are seen talking. The female passenger, dressed in a red T-shirt, remains behind.

The car guard begins to walk with the man and after speaking for a few seconds, the man pulls out a weapon and stabs the guard.
