On Monday, February 7 around 16:30 Honeydew Community Policing Forum (CPF) patrollers received a call about an accident on Bloekom Drive in Randpark Ridge.

The CPF patrollers were close to the area and managed to get to the scene in less than a minute after receiving the initial call.

They found that a motorcycle and two cars had been involved in the accident.

There were no other injuries on scene and the cause of the accident is still under investigation.
