A tragic accident late last
night left seven people dead and three others injured on the R38 between
Badplaas and Barbeton in Mpumalanga.
ER24 Spokesperson Chitra
Bodasing said a taxi and a truck collided into each.
Bodasing says when ER24
paramedics arrived on scene they found people, some of whom were ejected from
the taxi, lying all over the area. Some were found several metres away from
where the incident occurred.
“Seven people, among them a
child about three years old, were declared dead, three people sustained minor
to moderate injuries. They were transported to hospital” Bodasing added.
The exact details to the cause
of the accident will remain the subject of a police investigation.
