At least two young men were seriously injured in a crash on Robert Broom Drive over the weekend.
A post on Emergency Control SA’s (ECSA) Facebook page said they responded to a report of a serious motor vehicle accident on the corner of Robert Broom Drive and First Street on Saturday night, August 13. Reportedly some of the victims were entrapped in a vehicle.
“On arrival members assisted Mogale Fire with battery disconnection, vehicle safety and the patient extrication,” read the post. It also mentioned that three vehicles were involved in the collision. Two of the victims are in their 20s.

Rene Groenewald, the mother of one of the passengers in the blue Golf expressed her gratitude toward those who assisted the victims.
I am one of the moms whose son was in an accident on Robert Broom Saturday night. We want to thank everyone who has contacted us, everyone who helped put out the flames, every emergency worker that helped to cut them out. Every person who sent messages. We can’t get to everyone but want to express our gratitude.
The boys need operations and have serious injuries. They are both 21 and were innocent victims of unnecessary reckless driving. But we are thankful for our Heavenly Father who protected them. We need your prayers and will update with time,” she wrote on Facebook.

ECSA said multiple patients were transported to various facilities by various services, and thanked everyone involved, commending the excellent teamwork from all services.
They tagged the Krugersdorp Fire Station, Gauteng Emergency Medical Services, Netcare 911, ER24 Emergency, ComMed Emergency Response, Mogale Response Services, Krugersdorp Sector 7 Community Policing Forum, and various security companies.
The News is in contact with the affected families and will update its readers when information becomes available.
