An X user named @SiyaRumbu21, who seems to have been close to the situation, posted extensively about the incident. Here’s what they had to say:
“We’re looking for the white [allegedly] racist owner of this white Hilux bakkie. The driver of the Hyundai H-1 stopped to offload passengers at an OK Store in Beacon Bay, East London. The [alleged] racist got so impatient with the driver that he started ramming the vehicle from the back.”
According to the poster, after parking his vehicle, the Hilux driver went inside the shops. During that time, the H-1 driver attempted to gather his details. But when the Hilux owner returned, things took a darker turn.
Watch the video here.
“The [alleged] racist came back and rammed the H-1 from the passenger sliding door and drove off. While doing all of this, he made racist insults. He had a firearm on his waist, which is why nobody dared to confront him.”
The aftermath? A crumpled van and a trail of confusion left behind as the aggressor sped away, leaving witnesses scratching their heads and wondering what just happened.

“Why offload on a driveway? H-1 guy is wrong, and he met his match. Black people have a tendency of bullying whites, and when they react, you call them racist.”
@CitizenDevoted added their two cents:
“Why did he block him? I’m black, and I would’ve done the same thing. This isn’t racism; the driver of the Hyundai H-1 is wrong. Black or white, he’s wrong. La nyela, struu.”
@malopemojapelo offered another perspective:
“Black people generally see nothing wrong with parking in the middle of the road. They somehow think having hazards on is an excuse. I don’t know how many times I wanted to do what this guy has done. He’s not a racist. He’s a peed-off human being. Leave him alone.”
@Reggie_ZAR chimed in with a legal angle:
“The parking was there all along. You aren’t gonna win this one. Obstructing an exit and parking on a walkway is against the law. Better be prepared to be fined!”
