A man has been killed, in what appears to be another violent home invasion, this time in Sarnia, outside Pinetown.
The resident, who was believed to have been in his 40s, was shot in the chest at the Limpus Road property early on Wednesday morning.
The details of the break-in are not yet known.
It is understood that his wife and two children were at home.
"Paramedics quickly assessed the patient and found that a man believed to be in his forties had sustained a gunshot wound to his chest and was in a critical condition," says ALS Paramedics spokesperson Garrith Jamieson.
