ER24's Russel Meiring says when they arrived on the scene, they found a man and two boys, aged four and eight lying motionless inside the home.
Meiring says local authorities were able to gain access to the home, allowing paramedics to move the patients to the ambulances.
"Once outside, medics assessed the patients and found that the man and two boys, aged four and eight, were in a critical condition.
