The woman immediately begins screaming in panic, repeatedly yelling for the KFC employee to call the manager while her visibly shocked husband tries to process what just happened. Eventually, her husband exits the vehicle to search for the food thief, who managed to execute the brazen theft in broad daylight and front of multiple witnesses.

The incident highlights South Africa's ongoing crime challenges, with cities like Pietermaritzburg, Pretoria, and Johannesburg ranking among the most dangerous in Africa according to the 2024 crime index. Contact crimes, including robbery, remain particularly common throughout the country.

@Jason Rushin harshly commented:

"Make videos without audio if she is in it. Sickening voice to be honest. Poor man, I bet he wishes he was deaf.. Lol!"
