The bail hearing against Olympic athlete Oscar Pistorius will go into a third day after another hearing filled with drama.
A witness heard gunshots, screaming, and then more shots fired at Pistorius’ home on the night Reeva Steenkamp was killed, a police officer has said.
Day two of his bail hearing in Pretoria Wednesday also heard police suggest Pistorius may flee if he is granted bail.
He denies the premeditated murder of Steenkamp, his girlfriend, saying he mistook her for an intruder.
