Did Hugo ever phone the police? According to Wynand Janssen, the man with the prosthetic limb who chased after the car in that viral video, he is still waiting for the authorities to arrive.
The family has since moved to a "lekker plekkie" in Pretoria West after the infamous brawl, Janssen told
Jacaranda FM's Rian van Heerden in a radio interview.
The video was taken more than a year ago by a neighbour when they lived in Pretoria North.
Janssen, who lost his leg 25 years ago when a two-ton forklift fell on it, told the broadcaster he had been painting a portrait of a pink flamingo when his wife called him as the brawl broke out.
According to Janssen, his married son was friends with the blonde woman in the video. Her boyfriend, however, didn't think their relationship was platonic and had brought his friends to beat up who he thought was his love rival.
Janssen had come out of the house and found his wife brandishing a steel pipe – not a crutch as initially thought.
"I stormed out, they split and I followed them," he told Van Heerden, explaining he had tried to stop the car. "I may be old and crippled, but there is nothing wrong with my hands," Janssen said in Afrikaans.
Everyone involved had been completely sober, he said.
