A man was forcibly restrained and placed into a police vehicle following a violent incident in Laudium on 24 September 2025, where he allegedly assaulted members of the public without provocation.
According to SAPS Gauteng spokesperson, Colonel Dimakatso Nevhuhulwi, officers responded swiftly to the scene after receiving reports of an aggressive individual assaulting people in the area.
“Upon arrival, police found the suspect to be extremely aggressive and uncooperative. Due to the nature of his behaviour, officers were compelled to use necessary force to restrain him and place him inside a police vehicle for his own safety and that of others,” said Colonel Nevhuhulwi.
The suspect was transported to a nearby hospital for medical evaluation.
“One of the victims has since opened a case of common assault against the suspect,” added Colonel Nevhuhulwi.
Police investigations into the incident are currently ongoing.
