Quarrel gets out of hand Man lays assault charge after run­in with neighbour Marti Will A CHECKMATE situation has developed between residents of lower Kok Street in Welkom after an altercation involving an allegedly wrongly-parked vehicle and an ensuing battle of words and slurs, a standoff with a whip and other weapons, and a furious mob. As far as Vista can ascertain from video footage and photographs, at least four women were assaulted and one man sustained a concussion and bad abrasions and gashes from the whip and other weapons that were used. Vista has a photograph of a woman with a whip in her hand. A doctor was called to the scene to treat the injured man. The man’s wife was hurt when she tried to protect her husband from at least four people who attacked him with weapons. On Saturday afternoon at about 18:20 Willem Sik, a resident of Kok Street in St Helena, Welkom, and the owner of CTM in Bloemfontein, parked his vehicle on a piece of paving across the road from his house. “My driveway was blocked by vehicles at my home, and I quickly wanted to ask the guests to move,” says Sik. “I was at home for about four minutes when I heard a woman shouting at my gate. “She was yanking at the gate and screaming at me. She actually bent my gate. “She was very angry because I had parked on the pavement in front of her house.” He went out and tried to reason with the woman, but to no avail. A lot of people came to support her. Some of them had weapons, and one of her sons allegedly threatened to phone his gang in Thabong. Residents from all over came to see what the noise was about. Everyone was taking videos and photographs, and many of the slurs, comments and insults are audible on the videos. The woman central to the brawl shouted that she was going to phone the mayor. “Do you know who I am?” she yelled at bystanders.

TOP and bottom: Willem Sik’s injuries after an altercation in lower Kok Street. She told them all to go to Cape Town to Helen Zille. “She not only threatened us with the mayor, but she screamed at me and asked me what I was going to do. “She said this is 2015 not 1994,” says Sik. Sik has laid a charge of assault with the intent to do grievous bodily harm. The Welkom police have confirmed this. “The police are investigating the matter. “No-one else involved in Saturday’s incident has laid a charge,” says Molegogeng Lechesa, a police spokeswoman for the Welkom Cluster. ) Videos of the incident are available at www.vistanews.co.za.
