Bullets fly in CBD

CBD comes to a standstill as violence erupts.

One man has been rushed to hospital with a gunshot wound to the face, following an altercation at the Karellandman/ Victoria Street traffic circle.

The argument started after a local towing company stopped to assist a broken-down truck which was involved in a collision.

The argument escalated quickly, with one of the men taking out a cricket bat and the other man a wheel spanner to assault the men from the towing company.

A police officer carries away the cricket bat and wheel spanner used in the attack.

The employee of the towing company then pulled out a gun and fired three shots.

Members of the SAPS, Paramedics, Correctional Services EST and the Traffic Police were all on hand to control the chaos.

More details to follow.
