One RDP house collapsed, and four people who sustained injuries had to be taken to hospital.

One of them had to be transferred to the Klerksdorp/Tshepong Hospital complex for further treatment.

The roofs of several houses in the area, as well as the new community hall - built in 2014 – were blown away.

Resident Ofentse Mogajane tells OFM News before they knew it a wall fell over, adding it was chaotic.

Community members have been assisting the affected families.

Local ward councillor, Mbuyiselo Booi, said the Tswaing local municipality has consulted with the Ngaka Modiri Molema district and departments of Human Settlement and Traditional Affairs for assistance.

Meanwhile, Klerksdorp/Tshepong hospital spokesperson Nico Masiu confirmed to OFM News that a patient was admitted at the hospital with mild head injuries and right wrist fractures.
