Radical Smash-N-Grab Footage From Jo’Burg [Video]

A motorist in Jozi has captured the moment an opportunistic beggar robbed the car in front of him. All this in plain daylight of course. Check the video here.

We aren’t surprised when we hear about a smash-n-grab any more these days, but pop a video online and we have to take a squizz.

The above video shows a driver falling victim to a skelm along Witkoppen Road in Paulshof, Jozi. My guess is the guy saw some valuables on the dashboard and thought cha-ching, easy money. It has been reported by the man who filmed the video, Craig Jennings, that a cellphone was stolen.

I long for the day some mama walking past winds the thief with her purse, dropping him to the floor. Alas, not today, as it seems he made a successful getaway.
