Three injured in Pinetown car crash

Three people were injured, one seriously, when the car they were travelling in left the road and smashed into a lamppost in Pinetown, Durban, late on Saturday night, paramedics said.

Rescue Care paramedics were called to the scene just after 11.30pm to find the car had crashed into the pole, Rescue Care spokesman Garrith Jamieson said on Sunday.

“Three passengers had been injured with one sustaining serious injuries. Advanced life support paramedics worked to stabilise the injured on the scene before transporting them through to a nearby hospital for the further care that they required.”

At this stage the cause of the crash was unknown, Jamieson said.
