Biker Killed in Parktown Crash
A 26 year old man was killed this morning when his bike crashed into the passenger side of a Citi Golf in 7th Avenue, Parktown North.
It is believed that the Golf and the motorbike was travelling towards Rosebank when the accident occurred. According to bystanders on the scene, the Golf slowed down to turn into a driveway on 7th Avenue when the bike crashed into it.
The impact was so great that it caused the Golf to overturn and the bike was ripped into pieces.
When paramedics arrived on the scene, they found the man lying on the opposite side of the Golf. The biker sustained major injuries and there was nothing that paramedics could do to save his life. Netcare paramedics declared him dead on the scene. The driver of the Golf sustained minor injuries and was treated on the scene. The patient was later transported to the Rosebank Clinic for further treatment.
The road was blocked off in the direction of Rosebank and the Johannesburg Metro Police will be investigating this incident. It is believed that a family member of the deceased arrived on the scene. No personal information was obtained.
ER24, Johannesburg Fire, JMPD and Netcare attended the scene.
