A vicious attack occurred in Erasmia, Tshwane, yesterday.

In a video that spread across social media, a black Mercedes-Benz can be seen trying to escape a white BMW 1 Series before crashing into a pole.

The occupants of the white BMW then get out to attack the Mercedes by kicking the doors down and throwing rocks and bricks at the windows.

After some time, the man in the Mercedes is dragged out and attacked, and can be seen lying on the ground.

Other cars passing by stop to see what is happening, not knowing that there was also a gun involved:
