“The body of a man, believed to be in his 20s, was found lying behind one of the light motor vehicles,” said Meiring.

“Paramedics assessed the man and found that he had sustained numerous injuries and showed no signs of life. Unfortunately, nothing could be done for the man and he was declared dead.

“Two other patients, a man and woman, were assessed and found to have sustained moderate injuries.”
