An accident this morning on the R720 left one person dead and four others with multiple injuries when their Toyota Hilux collided with a tree.

ER24 Spokesperson Werner Vermaak said when they arrived on scene a man in his twenties was found outside the vehicle with fatal injuries. It is believed that he was ejected during the collision.

"Upon further assessment they found four others with multiple injuries, ranging from lacerations and fractures.

The occupants in the vehicle were extricated from the vehicle and stabilised on the scene and later transported to a nearby hospital for further medical care." Vermaak added.

 Exact detail to the cause of the accident will remain the subject of a police investigation.
