The footage has finally surfaced, capturing the moment the suspect shot DJ Warras, fled, then returned in disguise to inspect the crime scene before leaving. In a development that has sent chills through Johannesburg, Gauteng Police released CCTV on December 18, 2025, revealing the brazen actions of the gunman who assassinated popular radio host Warrick “DJ Warras” Stock outside his Sandton home on December 10. The video shows the shooter firing multiple rounds into Warras’s car, fleeing on foot—then reappearing 20 minutes later in a cap and different jacket, casually walking past cordoned police to survey the chaos before vanishing. “This is calculated coldness,” Commissioner Fannie Masemola said. “He returned to ensure the job was done.”

Warras, 35, a YFM presenter and father of three, was returning from a gig when ambushed. The CCTV, from a neighbor’s camera, captures the 11:45 p.m. attack: a hooded figure approaching the Mercedes, firing through the window, then sprinting away. The “disguised return” at 12:05 a.m.—lingering near investigators for minutes—has stunned experts. “It’s rare—checking for witnesses or evidence,” criminologist Dr. Johan Burger told Sowetan Live. Police link it to Warras’s anti-crime activism, exposing hijacked buildings and syndicates.

Wife Thandi, 33, and children (8, 5, 2) are “devastated.” Thandi: “He fought for community—now silenced.” A GoFundMe hit R1.5 million.

As the “return” haunts, justice beckons. Johannesburg demands answers—for Warras, forever.
