At least nine people were killed and 11 wounded in South
Sudan's capital, Juba, when an unidentified gunman opened fire on people watching a football match on television at the weekend.
The motive for the attack on Saturday night in Juba's southwestern suburb of Gure was not immediately clear.
"The investigation is going on," South
Sudan
police spokesman Daniel Justin said on Monday.
He said six people were killed at the scene and three died on the way to hospital.
South
Sudan
has been plagued by violence since a civil war erupted in December 2013 but it was not clear if the shooting was linked to political tensions.
The
poor, oil producing nation, is awash with arms.
Juba was the scene of fresh fighting in July between troops loyal to President Salva Kiir and those of his rival Riek Machar.
Machar, who had returned to the capital to resume the post of vice president weeks earlier, fled Juba during that flare-up and is now abroad.
