VIDEO clips of horrific scenes of a City of Polokwane municipality worker driving over his colleagues and smashing municipal vehicles with a work truck have been leaked.

The disturbing  visuals have been on social media today, about a month after the incident happened.

The SunTeam had reported that on Friday 7 August the municipal driver went on a rampage with a work truck, crashing into cars and unfortunately into people.

The Municipality's worker Walter Madubanya (35) is seen driving carelessly towards his colleagues smashing municipal vehicles and police vans.

The incident happened at the municipality's offices in Ladanna, Limpopo early in August 2020.

It's still not known what had caused his erratic and dangerous behaviour.

Loud gunshots can also be heard in the video when police are shooting at the truck.

In another video, Walter is seen  trapped inside the mangled and bloody truck.

He yells in Sepedi at the cop who approaches him with a gun in his hand, in Sepedi, "Betha moo hlohogong ke tsamaye" meaning shoot me in the head so that I die.

The cop deliberately shoots against the wall and Walter screams.

He ran over his 55-year-old colleague Basie Smith, who died in hospital on the same day.

Brigadier Motlafela Mojapelo, the spokesman for Limpopo police, has confirmed that the attempted murder case against the accused, Walter Madubanya has now changed to murder.

"The suspect has been denied bail by the Polokwane Magistrates Court and his cases were remanded to 16 September 2020 for formal bail application,” he said.
