WATCH: Looters caught on camera in Pinetown

The incident was also captured by police surveillance cameras.

HIS life threatened, a truck driver stood by helplessly as people looted the goods that had fallen off his truck.

According to eyewitness, Andreas Mathios, who captured the incident on camera, the looting of a Woodfords truck transporting energy drinks took place on Richmond Road in Pinetown around 5.30am today.

“The truck was pre-loaded last night and the cardboard sheets used to hold the drinks in place got wet from the night’s rain. When the truck turned from Richmond Road to the freeway this morning, the load shifted and collapsed on the roadway.

“The driver was helpless and threatened with violence as scores of people converged on his load and took as many cans and six-packs as they could carry,”  said Mathios.

Mathios added that the incident was also captured by police surveillance cameras.
