Around 10.30 p.m. on Friday, someone called the police after finding Barbara Nomakhosi’s dead at a Walnut Avenue property.
Police think she passed away earlier that night.

Investigations are also underway on the motorway incident.
The 35-year-old Ms. Nomakhosi’s family has praised her “thoughtful” disposition and stated that she was “always checking up” on loved ones.
“Barbara cherished her role as a caregiver and loved her family,” the statement issued by the police read.
