A 64-year-old woman is said to be in a critical condition after an apparent farm attack on the Kalbasfontein Road between Carletonville and the Vaal on Friday evening, 10 March.
When ER24 paramedics arrived on the scene, they found that local authorities, along with local farmers and CPF, were already in attendance.
Russel Meiring, ER24’s spokesperson said, “Paramedics were led into the residence, past the bodies of three dogs that had been apparently shot. Once inside, they found the woman lying in a small pool of blood. Upon assessment, paramedics found that the woman had sustained a serious head injury as well as serious lacerations to both her wrists.”
“Paramedics also found numerous penetration wounds to both the patient’s feet,” said Meiring.
Paramedics immediately began treating the patient, and provided her with several advanced life support interventions. Once stabilised, the patient was rushed to Medi Clinic Vereeniging for urgent treatment.
The details surrounding this incident are not yet known, but local authorities were on the scene to conduct an investigation.
