Potch crash: One dead, 3 injured─── 07:45 Mon, 19 Sep 2016
Bloemfontein - One person was killed and three others injured when their vehicle overturned on a dirt road 20 kilometres outside Potchefstroom at around 19:00 last night.
ER24's Werner Vermaak says their paramedics found the vehicle lying on its roof on the side of the road. It appears that the driver lost control of the vehicle and crashed through a fence and gate on the side of the road.
The injured were transported to Potchefstroom Provincial Hospital.
Meanwhile, Netcare 911's Chris Botha reports about a collision on the N6 about thirty kilometres from Bloemfontein, just after 22:00 last night. Fifteen people were injured when a taxi veered off the road and overturned.
The injuries range from minor to serious.
