Limpopo- Police said a baby had been found at the scene of an apparent murder and suicide outside Groblersdal in Limpopo on Sunday morning.
Provincial police spokesperson Colonel Moatshe Ngoepe said a passerby stumbled upon “the horrific” sight of the body of a man hanging from a tree.
Police were called and they found a body of a 22-year-old woman with bruises around her neck, and a 37-year-old man hanging from a tree.
At the scene the police found a four-month-old baby nearby as well, they believed the child would be deceased.
