A video showing a yellow excavator ripping through corrugated metal structures at a dusty construction site has ended with the arrest of a 45-year-old operator accused of wrecking his employer’s property.
The footage, shot in a raw, handheld style, shows bystanders watching from a distance as the machine flattens the structures.
According to police, the incident took place on November 10, 2026, along Mvumoni Street in Somangila, Kigamboni Municipality.
Kalaghe works for China Energy Engineering Group Guanxi Hydroelectric Construction Bureau Co. Ltd., the firm carrying out road construction works in the area. Police said he had a disagreement with the company before the destruction began.
He allegedly climbed into a SANY excavator and used it to pull down two gates and a perimeter fence on the company’s premises.
Two vehicles were hit as well. The suspect is accused of damaging a Toyota Sienta saloon car owned by Brighton Abraham Mfangavo, along with a Sinotruk fuel tanker that belongs to the company. The video also shows him destroying stalled vehicles at the site.
Kalaghe is being held by Dar es Salaam police, who have not yet said when he will be arraigned or what charges he will face. The motive and the full extent of the damage are still unclear.
