Guard tells of gunshots
A security guard at the townhouse complex where Oscar Pistorius lived spoke on Friday of gunshots his colleagues reported hearing around 3am on February 14 last year.
A security guard on bike patrol arrived at the entrance of the Silver Woods Country Estate and reported having heard gunshots, Pieter Baba told the High Court in Pretoria.
Baba is the shift leader and security guard at the estate.
Baba then drove with another guard in a bakkie to the home of radiologist Johan Stipp, who had called the guards to report gunshots.
"Stipp was outside on the balcony, pointing at Mr Pistorius's house," said Baba in response to questions from prosecutor Gerrie Nel.
Pistorius is accused of the murder of model and law graduate Reeva Steenkamp.
He is also charged with illegal possession of a firearm and ammunition, and two counts of discharging a firearm in public.
He allegedly fired a shot from a Glock pistol under a table at a Johannesburg restaurant in January 2013.
In September 2010, he allegedly shot through the open sunroof of a car with his 9mm pistol while driving with friends in Modderfontein.
