4 shots seems quite a lot for an accident! Though as we know next to nothing surrounding the circumstances yet probably a bit soon to make any real accusations. Though 4 shots still seems a lot for an accident.

Any way you look at this, it's an awful tragedy.

MrsC has spent a lot of time with family in parts of South Africa and very nearly got shot by her brother in law when returning late after a night out, as he thought they were burglars.
Her ex's mum was burgled and only just escaped with her life. Burglars know there is a high chance of getting shot, so they will frequently shoot first; same with car-jackings - if you're a desperate, drug addicted, HIV-positive burglar, your perception of the value of human life is probably a bit skewed.

So, it's not an unlikely scenario, but without more information, who knows?

What a tight arse. A card and flowers would have been cheaper in the long run.

He may be underlegged but apparently he's very well armed.

That goes for pretty much the entire poor black community of South Africa and the rest of Africa.

Indeed. Although in this case it looks increasingly like he just shot his girlfriend.

Agreed.

While the puns are 'funny' and expected, this news is very sad frown
