Woman killed in car smash
A woman died as a result of her injuries in an accident in Umbilo this morning.
A WOMAN was killed in an accident at the intersection of Alan Paton (Mc Donald) and Esther Roberts (Frere) Roads in Umbilo just after 7am this morning (3 September).
Rescue Care paramedics arrived on the scene to find the two vehicles had collided in a T-bone style before the one vehicle collided with a robot.
“Paramedics quickly assessed the one driver, however she had sustained fatal injuries and passed away before paramedics had arrived, and there was nothing further that could be done. The other driver sustained minor injuries and was transported by Rescue Care to a nearby hospital for further care,” said Garrith Jamieson from Rescue Care.
Jamieson said it was unclear what caused the collision however SAPS were on the scene and would be investigating further.
