It follows the exchanging of fists at Mall of Africa on 21 July.



Mall of Africa confirmed the incident on Twitter, saying they were working closely with police to ensure the safety of all visitors. 


The incident comes in the wake of a spate of attacks on Uber drivers in Pretoria over the last two months. 

 


Earlier this month an Uber driver died as a result of his injuries.

 


His car had been petrol bombed outside Loftus Versfeld in June.

 


An Uber driver had also been hijacked and assaulted in Hatfield on 4 July. 

 


Three were arrested after an Uber vehicle was set alight on Jeff Masemola Street in the Pretoria city centre on 6 July.



In the video, police are seen standing by idly.

 


Johannesburg north cluster police spokesperson Mohlaume Mamabolo says no case was opened, but he hopes to have more information on Tuesday.
