Olympic sprinter Oscar Pistorius has been arrested after a 30-year-old woman was shot dead at his home in South Africa.
Officers found a 9-mm pistol at the scene and took the 26-year-old Pistorius into custody. Mogale said Pistorius was expected to appear in court later Thursday.
Several South African media outlets reported that the woman was Pistorius’ girlfriend and that he may have mistaken her for a burglar and shot her, but police did not clarify the woman’s relationship to Pistorius.
