A pedestrian to be in her mid twenty’s was knocked down after a bakkie and a car collided at the intersection of Boshoff and Prince Alfred street in Pietermaritzburg this afternoon.
ER24 paramedics arrived on the scene to find a bakkie wedged between a gate, a fence and the robot, while the light motor vehicle was found close by mounted on the pavement. The pedestrian was found on the pavement complaining of severe pain to her leg.
The pedestrian was treated for a possible broken leg while the driver of the bakkie was treated for possible neck and back injuries. Both were stabilised on the scene and transported to Northdale Hospital in a serious but stable condition.
It is unclear who was at fault but the necessary authorities were on the scene and would be investigating the incident further.
