Valentine's Tragedy: Oscar Pistorius arrested after 'he accidentally shot dead girlfriend after mistaking her a burglar'







South African paralympic star Oscar Pistorius has been charged with murder and is in custody after reportedly shooting his girlfriend dead in the middle of the night after mistaking her for a burglar.

It happened at 4am this morning and the woman may have been killed after a Valentine's Day surprise went tragically wrong at his mansion in Pretoria. The dead woman is Reeva Steenkamp, 30, a former FHM model who has been dating the 26-year-old for two months. She was shot in the head, the chest and the arm, police in the country have said, and Mr Pistorius will appear in court later today after a blood test in hospital.

'We have opened a case of murder', Pretoria police spokesman Katlego Mogale said, adding they will be opposing bail. Just yesterday Miss Steenkamp spoke excitedly on Twitter about her plans for Valentine's Day.
