A BEER truck that lost its load on the N2 near Queen Nandi Drive has caused chaos as looters have descended on the busy freeway. It’s alleged the driver pulled over after he thought there was a problem with the truck. However when he pulled onto the side of the road, several crates of beer feel out of the truck.
According to Marshall Security’s Tyron Powell, Metro Police and SAPS were on scene to protect the truck from looters.
“Minutes after the driver had stopped to inspect the damage, people came running to pick up the crates and bottles. Some even loaded them onto trucks.
“Several individual looters were arrested as well as the driver of another truck who loaded his vehicle with 20 crates of beer. Thankfully there were no serious injuries but police have secured the truck from looters,” he said.
