A South Coast man has been shot dead at his home.

Netcare 911 spokesperson Shawn Herbst says the man was found lying face down in a pool of blood in his front garden in Umkomaas on Thursday.
It’s believed the victim was in his late forties.
"Reports allege that an unknown number of gunmen in a single vehicle stopped outside the patient's gate, whereupon the patient exited the house to investigate," says Herbst.

"The patient, whose body was riddled with gunshot wounds, was assessed, however, showed no signs of life and was sadly declared deceased on the scene."
