One person died and eleven school children were transported to hospital after a collision between a bus and a taxi on Koeberg Road, opposite Albow Gardens, in Brooklyn.

“Eleven children from the taxi were treated for minor to serious injuries but were all in a stable condition. They were transported to Milnerton Medi-Clinic and Life Vincent Pallotti Hospital for further medical care.

“The deceased driver of the taxi was extricated from the vehicle by rescue crews using hydraulic rescue equipment,” said Wadeley.
