@Lungsta_Mk commented:
"He thought by running on the grass pavement, he’d be safe. She said oh my baby, this Tazz is an off-roader and mowed him down, but our constitution will protect the thief cause thieves wrote it!"
@TalkLawMonare wrote:
"And just like that, going away for murder. Understandably very furious, but emotions are not always the best way to react, like in this situation. The amount of suffering she'll now endure is much greater than that which she'd have had to endure had she not reacted this way."
@Kabelodick said:
"We need to find that lady and crowdfund to fix any damages on her car, this one is a legend, and she must be protected."
@Lwanda_ argued:
"This may look like an overreaction, but people are TIRED of your hustling boyfriends. I suspect the victim has been a victim of something similar before and decided today they're not letting it slide."
@BoerPlan added:
"This is how you deal with criminals. Oh, what about South African law enforcement, you say? They are part of the criminal element."
Crime rampant in South Africa
Many communities in Mzansi get frustrated with crime. Diepkloof resident was in a clash with police after taking the law into their own hands.
