Police officers have returned to the Hangberg community on Sentinel Hill in Hout Bay today to demolish more illegal structures.

Some of the structures were torn down yesterday, but police were met with violent resistance from the residents of Hout bay.

Today police were not met with as much resistance from residents as they did yesterday.

The main road in front of Hangberg and the road leading into Hout Bay has a strong police presence today.

At the end of yesterday 62 people had been arrested and 15 metro police officers and 3 civilians were injured.
