Violence breaks out at a line waiting for water at a spring in Cape Town

Violence breaks out at a line waiting for water at a spring in a neighborhood in Cape Town after severe drought leaves the city with dwindling water supplies. After restrictions were imposed in early 2018, citizens have taken to collecting water from local springs, which are not counted in their water restrictions. In response to this violence, guards are posted at the spring and restrictions put on how much water can be collected.
