VIDEO: Car hijacking at petrol station in Chatsworth, KZN
In a video that was shared on social media, we see a vehicle being hijacked at a petrol station somewhere in Chatsworth.
Proof that you should always be alert was served to us late on Tuesday evening when we saw a video of a car hijacking in Chatsworth, KZN.
A white vehicle speedily approached a parked car at what looked like a BP petrol station.
Three unidentified people wearing black exited the car, approached the stationary vehicle, and forced the occupants out.
They looked like they were holding firearms.
From the angle of the camera, we can see the passenger side of the hijacked car more clearly and one of the attempted hijackers frisking the passengers for their belongings.
After a few seconds, we see the driver of the car walk away from the car slowly. The occupants of the hijacked vehicle do not resist.
The suspected hijackers then drive off. Many bystanders watched on.
Not much more information was shared as to the exact location in Chatsworth or if the vehicle was recovered. Yusuf Abramjee shared the video on X.

Owning cars like this is high risk in SA. You must always be prepared for danger. Your life is worth more than your money.

So people just watch,no one is gonna drive and smash their car or do something? I think filling stations should now have armed guards
