According to K24 Digital, the suspect forcibly gained entry into the estate at around 5.03pm after providing Damaris with contradicting information.
Initially he told the guard that he was going to house number 45 and later 42.
The fight ensued as he exited the estate. He was asked to verify his details, a request he did not take kindly. It is then that he slapped her and threw her to the ground.
Damaris apparently reported the incident at Kayole Police Station on Monday following public uproar.
