At least 20 people were injured and 20 others arrested on Tuesday morning when residents of Pielie's Farm in Meyerton, 20km south of Joburg, erected barricades on the R59 highway and pelted passing motorists with stones.
Residents of the informal settlement hid behind shacks flimsy corrugated the cover of as police in full riot gear, armed with shotguns and backed by two Nyalas, went in to the settlement, seeking out those involved in the protest action.
