Video: Police officer assaults and threatens to shoot citizen
A devastating video of a police officer assaulting a citizen and then later threatens to shoot the man is circulating on social media. Many are disappointed by the officer’s actions and think he is abusing his authority. The police protects citizens but when it officers have to hit citizens who have not initiated any form of violence it becomes a problem.
What scares most is that the police officer takes out his gun and prepares to shoot the man before the driver drives off. The man who was slapped by the police is accompanied by a lady whose face does not show but records the whole incident.
As of yet it has not been reported what the driver’s offense was but people are still against the way the officer reacted. Taking to social media, members of the public have a lot to say concerning this incident. People are assuming the driver did not bribe the officer and hence the reaction.

“This is the result of refusing to buy cold drinks for Mr Officer while you drive Bentley and you’re black.”
“The uniform looks like the one MP traffic wear or I’m wrong..? While this incident happened around Gauteng”
“This is totally unacceptable, and calls for highest punishment. He even took out his gun”
“Whatever the guy said to the “cop” before matters not. The cop is trained and shoul remain professional at all times. This one was just too angry and he is a danger to the public and himself. Not only did he hit the driver he took out his gun and loaded it, ready to shoot.”
“Had my fair share recently simply because the car gave the officer who was my age group chest pains..he called his crew, they looked for weapons, tested for Bev, check if the car is stolen & all was cleared. To serve ego, they wrote a ticket for non sabs approved plate number.”
The video is disturbing and most will not believe a police officer would do that. People are calling that the officer should be found and dealt with accordingly.
