18 May 2017, Roodepoort: A truck loaded with boxes of cooking oil travelling from Roodepoort towards Krugersdorp along this road was stoned.
The driver ran away while the residents looted the truck, then drove it closer to the informal settlement and set it alight. The diesel tank exploded, burning the rest of the truck.
Meanwhile a tipper truck travelling in the opposite direction, stopped opposite the informal settlement because the road was blocked.
