A man has been charged with two counts of murder over the shooting deaths of two 19 year olds at a rural property in South Australia.
Authorities believe the man shot dead two teenagers – his son and his son's girlfriend – in an alleged double murder.
Officers were called to a rural property in Mount McIntyre, near Millicent in the state's southeast, about 11.30pm on Saturday where they found the bodies of the two teenagers.
