A man was killed and three others injured, including a child, following a collision between a truck and three light motor vehicles on the M3 between Tokai road and Ladies Mile road, on Friday afternoon.
ER24's spokesperson, Russel Meiring said authorities arrived on the scene just before 1p.m, to find a truck on the side of the road among some trees.
‘’A light motor vehicle was found behind a truck smashed
against another tree while two light motor vehicles were parked on the road. On
closer inspection, medics found a man lying motionless in one light motor
vehicle while two other men were found near the other vehicles. Medics assessed
the men and found that the man in the car had already succumbed to numerous
injuries while the two other men had sustained moderate injuries.
Unfortunately, nothing could be done for the one man, and he was declared dead.’’
‘’The two other men were treated for their injuries and
later transported to nearby hospitals for further care. It is understood that a
critically injured child was transported to a nearby hospital by a member of
the public before the arrival of paramedics,’’ added Meiring.
Local authorities were on the scene for further
investigations.
