An accident between a taxi and light motor vehicle
this morning in Kempton Park has left 16 people injured.
ER24 Spokesperson Russel Meiring said ER24
paramedics from the Johannesburg Central and East branch, arrived on scene and
found the stationery taxi and light motor vehicle on the embankment on the
road.
Meiring said occupants that had been travelling in
the taxi were found sitting on the embankment. Paramedics began their
assessment and found that 16 people from the taxi and light motor vehicle had
sustained minor to moderate injuries.
“Fortunately, no one had sustained serious
injuries. Paramedics set up a triangle area and began treating the patients for
the injuries. Once treated and some of the patients immobilised, they were
transported to various hospitals in the area for further treatment” Meiring
added.
The exact details to the cause of the accident will
remain the subject of a police investigation.
