Female pedestrian killed in accident on the R24

A woman was killed and three others injured on Friday afternoon in a collision on the R24 in Kempton Park.

Russel Meiring, spokesperson for ER24, said ER24 paramedics arrived on the scene to find a woman, believed to be in her 30s, lying in the fast lane of the highway. A light motor vehicle was found parked in the same lane a short distance away.

“Paramedics assessed the woman and found she had sustained fatal injuries. Nothing could be done for her and she was declared dead by another service,” Meiring said.

Three women in the car sustained minor injuries. The patients were treated for their injuries and transported to Life Roseacres for further treatment.

Local authorities were on the scene for further investigations.
