Rudolph was then shot twice at point blank range: once in his left ear and once in his chest. Her son Rual then rushed to their -- (by law required to be locked up) gun from the gunsafe, rushed back and fired towards the gunmen - at which point they fired back, injuring the oldest son Colin in the chest. The two men now are at the academic hospital in Pretoria and after a week now are 'out of danger'

My son has to get more scans before the doctors decide how to remove the bullet, which was lodged in his back'. "He's walking with difficulty because of the bullet.' Meanwhile Alta is terrified of remaining at the smallholding.
