Speed camera operator assaulted in Paphos
A speed camera operator reported to the police that he had been assaulted by unknown individuals in the early hours of Thursday.
The 36-year-old said that around 2.40am, while in the parked vehicle on the Paphos-Limassol motorway, near the Kouklia exit, a car pulled up with three people inside.
One of the three people allegedly asked to speak with the operator, who opened his window slightly.
The man said the perpetrator then pepper-sprayed him in the face, while the other two individuals damaged the speed camera van.
The operator then drove off and reported the incident to the police.
Police investigations are ongoing.
