On Tuesday afternoon at 17h10 Netcare 911 paramedics responded to a head-on collision on the R64 in Kimberley. Exact detail to the cause of the collision is still speculative and will form part of the South African Police investigation.
Netcare 911 paramedics, the fire department and several other services arrived at the scene and found the roadway obstructed with the twisted frames of the vehicles, some of the injured were still trapped in the wreckages. After triaging it was found that two men from the bakkie tragically died before our arrival, one person was in a critical condition, two were seriously injured while four others sustained moderate injuries.
Paramedics stabilised the injured at the scene before they transported them to various hospitals for the care that they required. The critically injured patient tragically died soon after arriving at hospital leaving the death toll at three.
