A motorcyclist died when he and a Peugeot allegedly hit head on in Gie Road at the Blaauwberg Road intersection in the early hours of yesterday this morning.

ER24’s Tristan Wadeley says the motorcyclist is believed to be nineteen years old, was dead on arrival of the emergency services.

“Paramedics initiated CPR and advanced life support resuscitation was carried out. The ambulance rapidly transported the young man to Milnerton Medi-Clinic where doctors reassessed him and declared him dead, say Wadeley.

“It was unclear to paramedics exactly what the cause of the accident was, but police were in attendance and will be investigating the incident.”
