Drunk man knocked out in Cape Town (video)

Western Cape police spokesperson Captain FC van Wyk said they were aware of the incident.


A man in the city of Cape Town was caught on camera assaulting an intoxicated man and the footage has gone viral.

The suspect, who was holding a can in his hands, was walking up a flight of stairs and was confronted by a man who seemed to be very intoxicated.

It’s unclear when the altercation between the two started as there seemed to have been a back and forth between them in the video before the recording started.

What the intoxicated man said was also unclear but before things escalated, he said: “Who are you?”
