A woman sustained burn wounds in yet another attack on trucks, this time in Mpumalanga early on Wednesday morning.
A similar modus operandi to others reported since the weekend was used in this latest attack, according to Mohlala, with armed men having emerged from the bushes and instructed the drivers to get out of the vehicles or risk getting burnt inside.“No-one has been arrested so far and the police are continuing with investigations. The motive is unknown at the moment,” Mohlala said.
“The incident of a truck that was burning on the R59 Road, north bound near block house is not related to the truck attacks. It is reported that the truck caught fire following a tyre burst. The driver managed to stop the truck and called emergency services for assistance,” police said in response to a query by TimesLIVE.KwaZulu-Natal police on Monday confirmed that two trucks were set alight as they waited in a queue on the N2.
