During a heated argument at her home in Riet River, KZN, a man was seriously injured after his girlfriend threw a kettle of boiling water over him (Monday).
At approximately 18:56, neighbours contacted Reaction Unit South Africa (RUSA) to request assistance for the injured male. When the 34-year-old arrived, he was discovered to have burns on the right side of his body.
He told Reaction Officers that he confronted his 14-month-old baby’s mother after receiving credible information that she was cheating on him. He listened in on her phone conversations and discovered intimate conversations with several men on her Facebook Messenger, confirming his suspicions.
After a heated argument, the female grabbed a kettle of boiling water and threw it on him. The man fled to his house, which was about 100 metres away.
Their child was present during the incident. Minutes later, the woman arrived at his house and informed Reaction Officers that she had acted in a rage after her partner questioned her about having multiple sexual partners.
No arrests were made right away because the victim was rushed to the hospital for medical attention. A criminal case will be filed soon.
