Five people were injured after a vehicle overturned and rolled down an embankment on the R614 in Wartburg Kwa- Zulu natal late last night. Exact detail to the cause of the accident and preceding events will remain a subject for police investigation and comment.
Netcare 911 paramedics arrived at the scene and had to clamber down the steep embankment with their equipment for ten meters to stabilise the injured. After the injured were treated at the scene medics carried them back up to the roadway to where the ambulances were parked, and then transported them to a hospital in Pietermaritzburg for the care that they required.
