One person has been killed and another injured after a taxi and a light motor vehicle collided head on while travelling on the N11. The vehicles collided outside of Newcastle near the R34 turn off in Utrecht on Friday night around 20:30.
Paramedics arrived on scene to find the driver and single occupant of the light motor vehicle trapped and sadly already deceased. No more could be done to save the patients life and paramedics declared the patient dead on scene.
