A taxi accident this morning
on the R59 Kliprivier Road, south
of Johannesburg
left fourteen people injured.
It is believed that the taxi had a tyre burst which resulted in it losing control and rolling several times.
ER24 Spokesperson Russel
Meiring said paramedics from the ER24 Johannesburg south branch, along with
other services arrived on the scene and found the taxi sitting upright on the
side of the road. The occupants were found walking around on scene.
Meiring said on assessment
paramedics discovered that 14 occupants from the taxi had sustained injuries
ranging from minor to moderate. Fortunately no-one had sustained any serious
injuries.
Meiring said paramedics treated
the patients on scene for their injuries and thereafter transported them to Natalspruit Hospital for further observations.
