Police in the North West have confirmed that no arrests have been made following an apparent drag racing incident in which eight people were injured.
Rustenburg police are investigating a case of reckless and negligent driving after two cars – a VW Polo and a Mercedes-Benz – collided, causing one of them to hit spectators along Zendeling Street this past Sunday.

“It is alleged that after the collision the driver of the Mercedes-Benz lost control and the vehicle hit only cars as well as the vehicle that was parked along the street. As a result, eight people including the driver of the Mercedes-Benz were injured. Investigation into the matter is still under way. No one has been arrested at this stage,” Mokgwabone said.
