One person was killed and four others were left with moderate to serious injuries in a collision that occurred earlier this morning. The collision occurred on the N14 near Kuruman and involved only one vehicle. Allegedly, the vehicle had a sudden tyre burst which caused it to roll several times.
When ER24 paramedics arrived on scene they found the vehicle in a filed next to the road. The vehicle had a total of five occupants. ER24 treated and transported one patient to Kuruman Hospital for further treatment.
The remaining patients were treated and transported by other medical services on scene.
The cause of the collision remains unknown, local authorities were on scene for further investigation.
