A domestic dispute over suspected infidelity took a dramatic turn in Durban when a man allegedly attempted to crash his vehicle in a suicide mission, leaving his wife injured.
Reaction Unit South Africa (RUSA) responded to the scene, where they found a brown Nissan Qashqai that had veered off the road and crashed into the bushes. The 49-year-old female passenger sustained back injuries, while the male driver remained unharmed.
According to the woman, the argument began when she discovered female clothing in the car. She claimed her husband then threatened to end both their lives before deliberately trying to crash into a tree. Instead, the vehicle struck a boulder and came to a halt.
Authorities have yet to confirm whether criminal charges will be filed against the driver.
