On Sunday afternoon at about ten-past-one, Table View police received a call that a man was threatening to shoot himself.
"We were on the scene within minutes at the Dorchester Drive home and negotiated with the 53-year-old father," says police spokesperson, Bernadine Steyn.
Steyn adds that after negotiating, the man and his 32-year-old wife came out of the house, and the man handed his 9mm licensed pistol over to police.
