WATCH: Paramedics involved in roadside brawl
There have been reports of tow truck drivers fighting over who gets to take the wreckage home.
What is not often heard of is paramedics fighting to determine who can treat and transport the patients from those wreckages.
But that is exactly what rival emergency services in Rustenburg are accused of doing.
A video has emerged showing a fight between officials from Med24/7 and Trauma Rescue at a crash scene. This is believed to be only one of many incidents, with some of them taking place in front of crash victims.
Police have confirmed that a case has been opened and that they are investigating the matter
