Two people were killed and fifteen others sustained multiple injuries when a taxi and a car collided this afternoon on Bottelary Road in Kraaifontein, Western Cape.
Paramedics from ER24 that arrived on the scene found people scattered across the incident. On further assessment they found that a woman in the taxi sustained multiple fatal injuries.
A man, believed to be the driver of the car, was also found with multiple fatal injuries.
Paramedics had to treat several people from the taxi for multiple injuries before transporting them to a nearby hospital for further medical management. Four people from the taxi sustained serious injuries and eleven others sustained minor injuries.
It is understood from bystanders on the scene that the car apparently made a u-turn when the taxi collided with it. However, the local authorities will investigate the exact cause of this accident.
