Accident At Little Falls leaves young girl in front seat with head injuries


[JOHANNESBURG – 16 FEBRUARY 2012 AT 14H15]

At the corners of Hendrick Potgieter and Fredenharry Road in Little Falls, a collision between a hatch back motor vehicle that was allegedly turning from Hendrick Potgieter into Fredenharry and a Toyota Adventure that was travelling along Hendrick Potgieter towards Florida this afternoon.

It is believed that the Toyota collided into the hatch back’s front passenger side of the vehicle before it came to rest just off the road. The front passenger which is believed to be a ten year old girl was assessed and found she may have a suspected head injury. Paramedics quickly stabilised her and rushed her off to Flora Clinic for rapid medical care. The mother who was the driver and her two other children that were in car seats were treated for minor injuries and received further medical care at hospital.

The driver and passenger of the Toyota were treated for neck and back injuries and were placed on specialised boards and taken to hospital for further medical intervention.

The necessary authorities were on the scene and would investigate the accident further.
