A Golden Arrow bus driver was struck by a bullet through the mouth at the Borcherds Quarry drive this Monday morning.
Police spokesperson warrant
officer Joseph Swartbooi said police found the driver had sustained injuries to
his mouth. Swartbooi said the gunmen fled the scene and were yet to be
arrested.
Golden Arrow bus services
(Gabs) spokesperson John Dammert confirmed the incident. He said the incident
has been reported to police and the driver was receiving medical attention and no
passengers were injured.
Transport Minister Fikile
Mbalula has cautioned taxi industry players to desist from violence, adding
that lawlessness was unacceptable.
Mbalula said that while they
remained concerned about the state of the taxi industry and were attentive to
the grievances of operators and drivers, acts of criminality in the industry
would not be tolerated.
