Spokesperson Chris Botha said when paramedics arrived there they found that the
patient was still trapped inside the vehicle and they had to use the Jaws of
Life to extricate him.
“The patient was in
a very critical condition and after he was extricated he went into cardiac
arrest and paramedics resuscitated him for quite some time,” added Botha.
He added that he
tragically died on scene due to the very extent of the injuries he sustained.
