Editing Lucas Radebe (section)

==Personal life==
In 1991, he was shot whilst driving with his brother Lazarus to buy drinks for his mother but was not critically wounded. When [[Leeds United F.C.|Leeds United]] confirmed their interest in 1994, Radebe's decision influenced in part by an incident that had taken place three years previously.
Radebe was shopping for his mother, accompanied by his brothers, one of his sisters and her baby. While walking, they heard a gunshot, but didn't pay it much attention because, says Radebe: "In Soweto you heard shots all the time". He felt a pain in his back and he was bleeding, and his left leg went limp. 
Radebe was rushed to hospital but nothing vital had been damaged. The bullet had entered his back and exited halfway down his thigh. The culprit is still unknown, it is suspected that someone was hired to shoot him rather than allow him to switch clubs.<ref>{{Cite news |title=The Wounded Chief |publisher=Sky Sports |url=http://www.socceram.com/story/0,21644,13873_6421474,00.html}}</ref>
