Attempted hijacking
This footage from Durban shows a number of citizens beating up two would-be hijackers.
The incident took place on Pine Street in the CBD of the KwaZulu-Natal city, and was caught on film by a CCTV camera.
Facebook user Rivaaj Ramdas posted this footage on his page, but TimesLive has since added it to YouTube, and this is the version you’ll see above.
The video shows the two alleged hijackers walk up to a white sedan and attempt to pull the elderly driver out of the vehicle. But before they can get very far, other motorists and passers-by attack the two men.
One of the men manages to escape but the other appears to sustain a pretty severe beating.
Local police told TimesLive they were “not aware of the incident”.
