Police at Paterson in the Eastern Cape are investigating a case of arson after two trucks were torched along the N10 with damage running into millions of rands.
Police Captain Andre' Beetge, says the incident happened in the early hours of Tuesday morning about 11 kilometres from Paterson on the N-10 where the drivers had pulled over to get some sleep.
