On arrival at the scene, it was established that a light delivery vehicle had broken down in the emergency lane and while mechanics were working on it, a heavy, articulated vehicle ploughed into the scene.
“A male of approximately forty years of age was found to have sustained fatal injuries and was declared dead on arrival of paramedics, while at least four other men were treated for injuries ranging from minor to moderate and taken to nearby hospitals for further medical care,” said Van Reenen.
