Netcare 911 paramedics attended to an
accident whereby a man sustained injuries after his vehicle plunged about sixty
meters down a steep embankment today.
The exact details of the cause of the
accident will remain a subject of a police investigation.
Netcare 911 Spokesperson Chris Botha said
that the man was still trapped in the vehicle when they arrived on scene and paramedics
set up a rope rescue system and then lowered themselves to where the man was.
“After stabilising him and putting him onto
a specialised stretcher, they hoisted him back up to the road where he was placed
in an ambulance and then transported to a nearby hospital for further medical
care,” added Botha.
