Car guards arrested at Zoo Lake

About forty car guards have been arrested at Zoo Lake for malicious damage to property, Johannesburg metro police said on Monday.

Inspector Edna Mamonyane said the guards threatened drivers and damaged their cars after drivers refused to pay them for watching their cars.

"Nine were arrested on New Year's Day, 16 on Saturday and the last 16 on Sunday."

They were all charged with malicious damage to property and interfering with drivers, Mamonyane said.
