An Angry crowd of Nigerians defied South Africa police officials in front of Arwyp Medical Centre in Kempton Park over the killing of a Nigerian National in police custody.
According to a Journalist with the Kempton Express who was caught in the chaos, said “police fired stun grenades and rubber bullets at the angry crowd in front of Arwyp on Saturday afternoon.”
An eye witness reporter, Shana Hobbs said; “All this was going on today in Kempton Park, and we knew nothing. Didn’t hear sirens or helicopters or nothing. And the ARWYP is 8km away. Funny cos when there is shit in Tembisa, we hear the gunshots, the helicopters fly right over our house, we can hear sirens. Strange”


The man believed to be a Nigerian national died in a police van in Kempton Park on Saturday, with police accused of suffocating him, the Independent Police Investigative Directorate (IPID) confirmed.
The Nigerian National is said to be a suspected drug dealer was arrested by the South African Police for possessing Chrystal Meth which was believed that he swallowed and died in a police vehicle as a result of it, according to the SA Police account.
Several people have sustained minor injuries and two others sustained moderate to serious injuries according to Netcare.
