Six people including a five year old child lost their lives in a crash at the N14 near Krugersdorp on Gauteng's West Rand on Sunday night.

It's been reported that two vehicles collided head-on.

Net care 911 spoksperson Chris Botha said when we arrived there we found the car in flames and people still trapped inside the car, while the other vehicle was distance away, also with some of the vehicles trapped.

Most of the people sustained critical injuries. Paramedics treated the patients and later transported them to various hospitals.

Meanwhile a man was injured following an accident on the R104 Bronkhorspruit Road in Rayton last night.

The exact details surrounding the cause of the incident will remain the subject of a police investigation.

Netcare’s spokeswoman Santi Steinmann says Netcare 911 paramedics and other services arrived at the scene and found that a light utility vehicle left the roadway and overturned several times, coming to a standstill on its side next to the roadway.

“Upon assessment of the occupants, paramedics found that a man sustained critical injuries during the rollover accident”.

The injured man was treated at the scene and rushed to hospital for the urgent medical care he required, Steinmann added
