He says the couple's gardener told paramedics he couldn't get into the house after arriving for work on Thursday morning and looked through a window.

 

"On arrival, paramedics met with the gardener, who informed the medics that he had arrived for work and couldn't gain access to the premises and saw two occupants lying in a pool of blood on the dining room floor.

 

"ALS Paramedics gained entry into the house and found a male and a female believed to be in their eighties with fatal gunshot wounds. Unfortunately, both of them showed no signs of life and were declared deceased on the scene.

 

"SAPS arrived a short while later, and paramedics handed the scene over to them."
