A collision on the West Coast Road (R27) in Melkbos last night has left two people dead and eighteen bus passengers injured.
“The two occupants of the Jetta were dead on arrival of emergency services and needed to be cut from the mangled car. 18 people from the bus were taken to various hospitals for further treatment,” said ER24’s Tristan Wadeley.
One patient sustained serious injuries and the other seventeen patients sustained minor to moderate injuries.
The remaining occupants of the bus were transported from the scene in another bus.
The road was closed in both directions while emergency services worked on the scene. The collision is being investigated by police.
