The shooting took place in Clayfield on Saturday afternoon. According to KZN VIP Protection Services, the man allegedly killed his wife before turning the gun on his daughter and himself.
According to provincial police spokesperson Colonel Robert Netshiunda, a man allegedly shot the mother of his child and his child before turning the gun on himself.
“Police responded to reports of a shooting on Pipeclay Drive, and upon arrival, police found the body of a woman lying in a pool of blood.
