A disturbing incident of alleged assault has surfaced online after an eyewitness captured a confrontation between two men in traffic involving a red vehicle with registration number GR 702-24.

According to details accompanying the video shared on social media platform X, the suspect, described as wearing a military-style shirt, reportedly attacked another man during a traffic altercation.

The eyewitness claims the incident began when the victim, believed to be a street washer, attempted to clean the suspect’s car while it was stationary in traffic. The situation is said to have escalated quickly, with the driver allegedly retrieving an object from his vehicle to physically assaulting the individual.

“ If the person is cleaning your car and you don’t want him to clean it doesn’t mean you should beat him. You are wearing a military shirt,” the eyewitness said.

The footage, which has since gained traction online, shows a chaotic scene as bystanders look on during the confrontation. The exact location and time of the incident have not yet been independently verified.

The alleged assault has sparked concern among social media users, many of whom are calling for swift intervention by law enforcement authorities to identify and apprehend the suspect.

As of now, there has been no official statement from the police regarding the incident.
