Just as people were enjoying themselves at a resort during Christmas day in Bloemfontein, Free State, two teenage boys aged 13 and 18 got assaulted while as they were swimming by a group of old men.

The video made its way on social media where it was heavily circulated on Twitter.

Social media users are of the view that it was an act of racism as it is mostly rife in some parts of the province. It is alleged that the young boys were approached by the said old white men suspects and were allegedly told to use another side of pool because the one they were using was for white people.

The act angered many people and an hour later EFF members stormed the resort to protect the young boys and confront the suspects but they were gone upon their arrival.

Police opened a case of assault and have warned the suspects to present themselves at Bloemfontein Magistrates Court on a date to be set.
