POTCHEFSTROOM - A man was killed and another seriously injured on the Potchefstroom-Parys road this morning.
When paramedics arrived on the scene they found a man, believed to be the driver, lying several meters away from a Bantam bakkie. Another man was found in the passenger side of the bakkie with serious head injuries.
It is believed that the driver was flung from the vehicle when it overturned.
The man had to be extricated from the vehicle before paramedics could stabilise him. A Medicopter was called to the scene to airlift the man to a hospital in Johannesburg for further medical management.
It is understood from bystanders that the bakkie overturned several times. The exact cause for this incident will be investigated.
