Koppies - Motorists travelling on the R82 between Koppies and Sasolburg have been urged to proceed with caution as protestors attempt to barricade the road.
Free State police spokesperson Peter Kareli says the community began protesting on Tuesday due to service delivery complaints, and things have since spiralled out of control, with foreign-owned shops being looted.
He says protestors are allegedly unhappy over the arrest this week of 28 people on charges of public violence.
Kareli says the suspects are scheduled to appear in court today.
