An accident late
last night on the R34 near Virginia in Free State left three people dead and multiple critical injured.
It is believed that a bus rear-ended a truck.
ER24 Spokesperson
Russel Meiring said they arrived on scene and found the two large vehicles
crushed together. The entire front section of the bus had been completely
ripped open.
“On inspection of
the scene, paramedics discovered that three people had been crushed in the
front of the bus. Unfortunately all three patients had sustained fatal
injuries.” Meiring added.
He also said that a number of other patients
were found on scene with injuries ranging from minor to critical. Paramedics
treated the patients and thereafter transported to them to nearby hospitals for
further treatment.
The exact details
to the cause of the accident will remain the subject of a police investigation.
