Zirk Bergh, a popular Afrikaans singer and guitarist, opened fire on his ex-wife when they met for a custody negotiation in Capetown [recte: Potchefstroom]. He killed his wife’s new husband, Charl du Randt, and a social worker handling the case, Deon Kondos. He also shot his ex-wife in the back in the presence of their two children before turning the gun on himself. Nicole du Randt died today. She was 26.

Zirk Bergh, 55, will be remembered not as a musician but as a mass murderer.

Be careful out there.
