WATCH: Meat truck looted in Mtubatuba

A truck delivering fresh meat in the form of animal carcasses was this afternoon (Wednesday) looted on the N2 just south of Mtubatuba.

This after the meat truck reportedly collided with a flatbed truck, which ended up down the embankment at the side of the roadway.

No injuries were reported, but hordes of people descended on the meat truck within minutes.

Police arrived on scene promptly in an attempt to disperse the crowds, but the meat truck was liberated of its contents in minutes as the looters quickly made off with the carcasses.

The N2 came to a standstill as traffic backed up for the duration of the looting.
