Police spokesperson Brig Mathapelo Peters said it was alleged that the 28-year-old son of the deceased woke up to gunshots in the estate.
“On checking, the son allegedly found his father downstairs with gunshot wounds to the upper body and found his wounded mother and sister upstairs,” said Peters.
The 57-year-old man and his 56-year-old wife were declared dead on the scene. The daughter was airlifted to a hospital for urgent treatment.
A television set, two Apple Macbooks, and a laptop were stolen from the house.

The suspect attacked the couple with a blunt object.
Muthan said the 83-year-old man was declared dead on the scene and his wife was left seriously injured.
