Johannesburg - A man shot and killed his girlfriend before turning the gun on himself after the two had a quarrel in Kuruman, Northern Cape police said on Tuesday.
Inspector Kgosietsile Hikwane said the incident happened outside their RDP house in the Mothibistad area at about 18:00 on Monday.
"Apparently they were a couple and they were arguing over something before the man shot the woman and himself with an unlicenced firearm", said Hikwane.
The 32-year-old man and 28-year-old woman died on the scene.
A murder and inquest docket were opened.
