Dimpie Theron chauffeured her disabled elderly friend, 72, to Roodepoort City Hall in Berlandina Street so she can settle her municipal bills. When they approached the few allocated disabled parking spaces in front of the Roodepoort Licensing Department, they found a JMPD van parked there. Theron proceeded to politely ask a nearby officer to move the vehicle.
“I didn’t even come to question why he was parked there and was not concerned that it is in fact illegal, I just wanted to get my friend as close to the entrance as possible,” she told the Record.
The officer, whose identity is known to the Record, allegedly told the woman to “find another f***ing parking”.
Steven van Eeden, on his way into the licensing offices, passed by the scene and decided to get involved.
