Brits - The SA Civil Aviation Authority is investigating the cause of a hot air balloon accident at Skeerpoort in North West that's claimed the life of a woman.


Spokesperson, Kabelo Ledwaba, says the completion of the investigation into the accident involving a Bill Harrop's Original Safaris balloon is marked by the release of a final accident report. He says this will contain the probable cause as well as safety recommendations.

A woman in her 40s passed away in Mediclinic Brits last night. Another woman and her four-year-old daughter are stable in hospital.
