SANParks ranger getting counselling after getting attcked by cyclists in Newlands
A South African National
Parks ranger is undergoing trauma counselling after she was attacked by a group
of cyclists in Newlands, Cape Town.
The men allegedly v
disrespected the woman's authority, jumped over a wall and entered the area
marked as a danger zone. It was stated that she was also insulted, racially
abused and pelted with stones after cyclists demanded entry to a cordoned-off
section, last month.
The section is one of three
that remain closed to the public following last month's Table Mountain
blaze.
SANParks Rey Thakuli on
Tuesday called on the public to assist in reducing the number of attacks on
rangers. Rondebosch police said they are probing the matter.
