Head-on collision between two light motor vehicles on the N12 in the far West Rand leaves two dead, another person critical.
Two men were killed and another left critically injured following a head-on collision between two light motor vehicles on the N12 in Fochville on Thursday morning, October 6.
ER24 spokesperson Russel Meiring said ER24 and other services arrived on the scene at 11:05 to find the two vehicles blocking the road.
“On closer inspection, medics found three men lying inside one of the vehicles while the driver of the second vehicle was walking around the scene.
“Medics assessed the patients inside the car and found that two men had sustained fatal injuries while the third was in critical condition. The man walking around was found with minor injuries.
“The patients were treated, and the critically injured was provided with advanced life support. Once treated, the critically injured man was airlifted by a private medical helicopter to a nearby hospital while the remaining patient was transported by ambulance.”
