Sixteen people sustained injuries ranging from minor to moderate after 16 vehicles and 1 truck collided on the N2 in Chesterville, Durban just before M7 South this afternoon.
Traffic is badly affected in that area and it proved to be quite a challenge for services to arrive at the scene. ER24 arrived on the scene at 14H20. Upon further assessment, they found 16 patients who had sustained injuries ranging from minor to moderate.
Two cars and the truck went down an embankment.
ER24, as well as multiple other services on the scene, transported the patients to hospital for further medical care.
The exact circumstances surrounding the incident were not yet known to our paramedics but police were on the scene for further investigations.
