Ekurhuleni Metro Police Department (EMPD) spokesperson Kobeli Mokheseng said the accident took place on Sunday night at around 10.15pm.
“According to Call Taking and the northern region dispatching centres, they do not have more information of the crash except that, last night, a red Nissan Micra lost control and rolled into the ditch,” said Mokheseng.
Mokheseng added that three occupants were transported to hospital by ER24.
“It is not clear at this stage how many occupants were actually in the sedan, what caused the crash, which hospital the patients were taken to and the injuries they sustained at the time.”
