'Three adult men had sustained moderate to serious injuries and required Advanced Life Support intervention' – Netcare 911.
Three people were injured in another motor vehicle accident during the weekend.
Shawn Herbst, Netcare 911 spokesperson said they responded to reports of a collision on the R114 on the West Rand at about 8.33pm on Saturday night, 29 August.
“Reports from the scene indicate that two vehicles were involved in a collision, resulting in a rollover. “Medics assessed the patients and found that three adult men had sustained moderate to serious injuries, and required Advanced Life Support intervention to stabilise them.
One of the men had been pinned down between the roof of the vehicle and the road, and the Mogale Fire and Rescue Services as well as a Netcare 911 Rescue Technician had to use hydraulic tools to lift the vehicle to safely remove the patient. Once treated Netcare 911, Emer-G-Med as well as another ambulance service transported all the patients to hospital for further treatment.”
