In total 142 people died in the riots and another 1,087 people were injured. It also lead to the destruction of 58 shops, 247 dwellings and one factory.〔 ==Thursday riots== On Thursday the 13 January 1949 ethnic Indians in the centre of the Indian business area of Durban were assaulted by black Africans. After a few hours of rioting the violence subsided with little destruction of property. Initially the violence was limited to destruction of property with little looting taking place. An account by a police detective present at the riots states that there was an organised element to the riots within the Zulu community and that "a group of men were preventing bus drivers from departing from the centre, leaving thousands of African passengers stranded in the centre. Many of them were dock workers who depended on busses to take them to the docks in Point Road. And agitators were busy among the passengers. The talk was that the time had come to rid the country of the Indians."〔
