PERCY CHRISTIAAN STELLENBERG
I am Percy Stellenberg and at that time I was 36 years of age.  I lived in Toekomsrus in Randfontein and on the 18th of October of 1990.  It was involved with the very high rent and the water and lights.  On that particular day we decided, after having been at a meeting.  I attended meetings very regularly to find out what the arrangements were with regards to the water and lights, whether it was going to be switched off or not and then eventually this led to riots.
 On that particular day our employer said that we were not allowed to come to work because there were riots in our area.  The day past and at around four o' clock in the afternoon, maybe three o' clock, maybe four o' clock in the afternoon, I was sitting at my cousin's house.  It then became unrestful and we decided that it would be better for us to return to our homes.  During that time I was walking home with some of my friends, some other men who worked with me.  
 As we were walking down Diamond Street or Diamantstraat we saw exactly how busy things were and when we asked people what was going on, we were told that Canon was killed and that the Panzer vehicle had driven over him.  The armoured vehicle had driven over him.  There were many children as well as grown men and we all decided to say that we had to chase off the soldiers since they had already killed one child.  It then happened that we approached the armoured vehicles.  We spoke with the soldiers and asked them please see what you have done.  You have killed one child already.

Why do you not rather leave otherwise there would be increasing violence.  The children will become more angry and they will start throwing stones.  The soldiers refused to listen to us despite us having spoken to them for ten minutes.
 While talking to them with a couple of these white men in the armoured vehicles, I did not notice that a person came out from the top of the armoured vehicle and then he shot me on purpose in the face.  I cannot remember anything beyond that.  When I awoke I was in hospital.
