Pistorius said everything was 'fine' to security guard

Oscar Pistorius told a concerned security guard on the phone that everything was “fine” after neighbours reported gunshots coming from his house the night he shot dead his girlfriend, his murder trial has heard.

The security guard, Pieter Baba, said Pistorius phoned him back moments after the initial brief conversation, but then started crying, didn’t say anything and the line went dead. It was minutes after the double-amputee Olympian shot dead Reeva Steenkamp, for which Pistorius is now on trial for murder.
