Attorney Gordon Gilhuys has been reported to the police for allegedly making a death threat to a snow cone vendor—an accusation he has denied.
Julius Chapman said Gilhuys, a retired magistrate, also damaged his snow cone cart, which is the sole source of his livelihood.

Both men made complaints against each other at the Brickdam Police Station, following their altercation yesterday afternoon along Hadfield Street, at the rear of the St Stanislaus College, where Chapman had parked his cart behind Gilhuys’ vehicle.

Chapman said Gilhuys subsequently took him by surprise with a series of curse words.
