“What was the load? Because seems like people are helping themselves.”
@DanitoGP said
“This is embarrassing. Yet again it is a sign of the times. People are struggling.”
@PumulaFrank said:
“Of course. I couldn't help to notice the poor folk in the black Nissan SUV struggling with the loot. Tough times.”
@Paseka_Vee said:
“The Jetta at the end didn’t play games. Loaded boxes in the boot.”
@ShlohMonde said:
“I’m starting to think trucks in SA lose their load on purpose. These guys are the real Robin Hoods.”
@NahlanhlaMalandu said:
“The guy who shot the vid played the guys dirty lol, he is zooming the plates.”
@MduMabuka said:
“If someone were to steal one box from the Jetta would the Jetta guy have the right to fight the thief for stealing his goods?”
This website, Briefly News reported that a truck got stranded and unable to move, which prompting local residents to rush in and loot the goods.
However, a recent Facebook post pointed to a unique twist. Lebo Khumalo Legodi shared an image and caption in the #ImStaying Facebook group, which showed the contents of a beer truck that was thrown from the vehicle.
The caption indicated that the locals refused to loot and chose to help the driver re-pack the drinks instead. Briefly News surveyed the responses and South Africans found the news hard to believe. However, some took the story at face value and praised the kind residents.
