In a chilling video, the man can be seen walking near the mall entrance in the covered parking area when a white car pulls up next to him and opens fire from the passenger side.
The man falls to the ground, and before the car speeds off, more shots are fired at his lifeless body.
Although the man was yet to be identified, social media users took to Twitter on Wednesday sharing the video and identifying the man as a rap artist and producer.
Sello urged anyone with information on the shooting to contact the Crime Stop Line on 08600 10111.
