The Tragic Story of Rolene Lessing, Jaydin Magerman, Constables Thapelo Tlomatsane and Sphiwe Sibeko

Reiger Park: Regan Collis is facing multiple serious charges following the deadly Reiger Park shooting that claimed the lives of four people — cousins Jaydin Magerman and Rolene Lessing, and SAPS Anti-Gang Unit constables Thapelo Tlomatsane and Sphiwe Sibeko.

The 23-year-old alleged gang leader appeared in the Boksburg Magistrates' Court on 12 August 2026, where details about the latest charges and his previous criminal cases emerged.

According to reports, police are investigating whether the killings could be connected to an alleged gang initiation ritual involving the Vatos Locos gang. One of the theories being investigated is that the killing of police officers could have been connected to an alleged requirement for gang members seeking to rise through the ranks.

But what happened on that Friday night?

Victims:
• Jaydin Magerman
• Rolene Lessing
• Constable Thapelo Tlomatsane
• Constable Sphiwe Sibeko
