Injured by the employee; deemed "in the way"

I was walking out of Shoprite Komatipoort between 14:45 and 14:50 on 23 June 2025 when said employee walked in to go about with his business. I subconsciously noted his presence and started to move out his way by walking as close as possible to the counters at the Money Market section towards the exit. Despite the space he had (there was no other person walking in either direction) I could say he walked at me and bumped into my left thigh using the case that he was carrying in his left hand (we're walking in opposite directions) I was stunned and looked back thinking it must've been a mistake and that he would apologise. He did not. I later heard that when asked why he purposely bumped into me he apparently rep**** with, "Why was she in the way," in a Nguni language. The fact that he came at me despite seeing me try my best to give him all the space he needed is quite disturbing. I wasn't even a threat to him or the cargo he had been carrying. But to charge at me purposefully seems, at least, evil. This shows me that there is a level of authority that the employees have over any other civilian that they may encounter, and that they may even injure (perhaps even fatally so) whoever the deem "in the way"
