Everyone who is married – please take a moment to be thankful that your relationship with your in-laws hasn’t resulted in a panga attack.
A Mugg & Bean in Bedford Centre, Jozi, was the scene of a pretty grizzly attack yesterday, with a man chopping off the finger of his ex son-in-law.
It could have been so much worse, though, because there was actually a gun involved in the altercation, too.
The owner of the Mugg and Bean, Adam Filmalter, spoke to eNCA:
“The two men were patrons at my restaurant and had been talking, an argument ensued between the two and we tried to contain the situation.”
“It quickly got out of hand and we called for security, one of the men pulled out a panga, he aimed at him and missed a few times. That’s when he pulled out a gun, luckily one of my customers threw a chair at the man in an attempt to disarm him. It could have been a completely different story if he hadn’t done that,” added Filmalter.
Now this one is pretty graphic, and shows the aftermath of the attack:
Here’s Bedfordview police spokesperson, Andre de Jager:
“A case of assault has been opened against a 52-year-old man, who attacked his former son-in-law with a machete knife at Bedford Centre this morning…
“According to the statement he gave, his former son-in-law had been intimidating his daughter, who had divorced him,” De Jager said.
The son-in-law is now being treated at a local hospital.
