A vehicle lost control and overturned at 295 Cowie road in Morningside Durban, leaving one man with minor injuries and another with multiple fatal injuries.
The cause of the accident is not known, but the impact to the vehicle was so severe that it was rendered almost unrecognisable. A man was found by ER24 Paramedics, entangled in the wreckage at the rear of the vehicle, who sustained multiple fatal injuries. The man had no signs of life, and was declared dead on the scene.
Fire and Rescue workers had to cut away at the wreckage to free the entrapped body. A second man, who was also believed to be in the vehicle at the time of the incident, was taken by ambulance to a nearby hospital. He was complaining of slight injuries only.
The Berea SAPS and Metropolitan police were on scene.
