Episode description
On 15 November 1988, a man named Barend Strydom carried out a shooting spree at Strijdom Square in Pretoria, South Africa, near Johannesburg, killing eight people and injuring 16 others. Strydom was later convicted and sentenced to death for the attack. It was one of many shootings during the apartheid struggle. The square itself has since been renamed Lilian Ngoyi Square.
