Two people died following a collision between two
bakkies on the R26 about 15km from Reitz, direction Tweeling, in the Free State
on Thursday.

paramedics and other services arrived on scene they found that one person was
entrapped in one of the vehicles and another was ejected.
She said, paramedics assessed the person who was
ejected and found that he sustained fatal injuries and was declared dead.
Bodasing added that the woman was extricated from
the vehicle with the Jaws of Life, she was assessed and found to have sustained
serious injuries.
