This morning Netcare 911 paramedics responded to a head-on crash on the R603 in Eston Kwa Zulu Natal. Exact detail to the cause of the crash and preceding events is still speculative and will remain a subject for police investigation and comment.
Netcare 911 paramedics arrived at the scene and found that one of the vehicles had burst into flames on impact; fortunately, members of the public had pulled the man from the wreckage. Reports indicate that three people were injured but two was taken away by passers-by before our arrival. The driver of the vehicle that was burning was found to have sustained critical injuries.
Paramedics worked tirelessly at the scene to stabilise the man before they transported him to a hospital in Pietermaritzburg under the care of an advanced life paramedic for the specialised care that he required.
