The long finger of the law: SA cop has finger bitten in bar, draws gun
A video doing the rounds on social media shows a drunk man and a cop entering into a confrontation - and it doesn't end well.
A cop and a drunk guy entered into a confrontation at a bar which led to a gun being drawn.
The drunk guy backs the policeman into a corner. He can then be seen warning him by pointing his finger in the drunk guy's face.
He then bites the policeman's finger, who then slaps him and walks away. The confrontation then leads to the men moving towards the door.

If people don't respect the uniform unconditionally we will live to regret it.
I'm sure the perpetrators here can be apprehended with little effort -a speedster was arrested at a funeral in Limpopo!
This is more serious @MbalulaFikile
Why was the policeman alone in such a hostile situation? Where is backup?
