|March 25, 2026
RESISTING ARREST
A MINIBUS taxi driver has been arrested after allegedly assaulting a provincial traffic officer during a week-long road safety crackdown across the Western Cape that saw 88 motorists taken into custody.
The incident unfolded on Sunday on Old Paarl Road in Brackenfell, where the driver reportedly ran a red light while over the legal alcohol limit. When officers attempted to stop him, he allegedly resisted arrest and assaulted a female officer, leaving her with bruises, before trying to flee.
He was later detained and handed over to Kraaifontein police. He faces charges of reckless driving, driving under the influence, and resisting arrest.
