Cape Town - Several roads off the key M5 highway in Cape Town were closed on Monday as violent community protests at Parkwood and Vrygrond continued unabated, the City of Cape Town reported on Monday.
City officials reported that cars have been stoned and tyres burned on roads near Parkwood, close to Grassy Park, causing roads to be closed between Dick Burton and De Waal in Plumstead and surrounding areas.
In Vrygrond, a shipping container had apparently been pulled onto a road inside Capricorn.
