Three dead as bakkie overturns in NC | News Article

Three people, including a minor, have died and eight others were left with injuries after a single bakkie overturned on the N12 outside Kimberley in the Northern Cape today.


ER24 spokesperson, Russel Meiring, tells OFM News all eleven people were occupants of the bakkie when it overturned. He says just after 13:00, emergency medical personnel arrived at the accident scene, just 60 kms outside the Northern Cape capital, where two women and a minor were declared dead on the scene.

According to Meiring, one of the eight injured people is in a critical condition and had to be given advanced life support. The seven other people sustained moderate injuries, the majority of which were children. They were all transported to hospitals in Kimberley.
