Two arrested for attack on cyclists in Knysna

Knysna, South Africa – Three cyclists visited the Knysna Police Station to identify their alleged attackers in an identity parade, after two of the five suspects had been caught.

Mike Williams and Donald McKenzie were attacked and threatened with their lives by a group of unknown black/coloured men in a Ford Bantam bakkie while cycling on the Uniondale Road near the Diepwalle turn-off on Saturday morning, August 9.

After the attackers left them without their bikes and stripped them even of their cycling tops, the same group of criminals – who had turned back towards Nekkies – attacked another cyclist, David Porril. Porril was coming up the same road from Nekkies towards Diepwalle.

The attackers threatened to shoot each of their victims.

The Ford Bantam was discovered to have been stolen in George.
