PRETORIA (Reuters) - One of the first people on the scene after Oscar Pistorius shot girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp told a court on Thursday he feared the South African Olympic and Paralympic star, who is on trial for murder, might kill himself with the same gun.

Testifying on the fourth day of Pistorius' trial, neighbor Johan Stipp said he entered the athlete's home last year a few minutes after hearing screams and shots to find the distraught sprinter kneeling over the lifeless body of a woman.

"'I shot her. I thought she was a burglar and I shot her,'" Stipp quoted the 27-year-old Pistorius as saying.
