Among those incidents are:

Pieter Hills, age 56, was fatally shot execution-style, reports say. His 23-year-old son, Eddie, was also shot. He died three days later in a hospital. See below.

The attack reportedly occurred November 6, 2020 at the farm Zwartpan in Hennenman in the Free State. The farm has been owned by the family for 147 years.

Reports say the crime scene was discovered by two farm hands who found the home’s kitchen in disarray, suggesting the father and son resisted the attack. The attackers took two guns from the home’s safe.

The victim’s wife was not home during the attack.

60-year-old Len Pretorius was fatally shot during a weekend birthday outing with his wife. The couple had rented a chalet on a farm in Tonteldoos, near Roossenekal called Bush Boys Camp.

Pretorius was shot in the face late in the evening when he drew back a curtain after hearing a loud noise outside.

“My husband turned around, walked towards me and collapsed,” his wife, Joey Pretorius, is quoted as saying. “I saw blood gushing out of his neck and realised I had to do something. I grabbed a towel and tried to put it against his neck. A guy came and hit me on my head and spoke closely to my ears and asked: ‘Where is your money?’ I grabbed my wallet and gave him what I had. I think it was R150.”

Three suspects fled the scene and have not been captured.

R150 is the equivalent of $9.89USD.

The thieves managed to steal R500 (about $32 USD) from the woman’s safe and her cell phone. Reports say Greyling’s husband died two months earlier.
