A police case will be opened on Monday following publication of video footage depicting a racial attack on a pizza deliveryman in Port Elizabeth.
Luigi Recchia‚ 40‚ the operations manager at Debonairs Pizza in Cape Road‚ said although it was reported as a “minor incident” at the time because the driver did not sustain any injuries‚ he is highly disturbed by the footage.
“I am very upset by this. The driver and I plan to open a case with police later today‚” Luigi said.
The video shows a white man in a bakkie intentionally knocking down a black pizza delivery man on a motorbike. The driver of the bakkie refers to the deliveryman‚ among other things‚ as “a one pizza k***r”.
The incident appeared to happen as the two drivers were pulling away from the traffic light at Conyngham Road‚ both turning right into Cape Road. Speaking in Afrikaans‚ the man in the bakkie uses foul language and uses a racial slur several times to refer to the delivery man as he films the incident himself.
The video footage posted on Facebook shows the delivery man lying on the tarred road in Cape Road after he is struck by the vehicle.
