Jaws-of-Life used to Rescue Four
A woman had to be rescued out of the wreck of her car this evening by the jaws-of-life after the car overturned several times.
When paramedics arrived on the scene they found a red Polo Classic obstructing the fast and
the middle lane of the highway. Three occupants of the car were injured. The male driver of the car sustained minor injuries. An elderly lady, who was sitting in the back at the time, sustained possible fractures of her legs and is in a serious condition. Another female passenger had to be cut out from the car by the Johannesburg Fire Department.
Paramedics from ER24 and Netcare transported the patients to nearby hospitals for further treatment.
According to a bystander on the scene, the Polo tried to overtake a Ford Ranger and collided with it. No one in the Ford Ranger was injured.
The highway's fast and middle lane was closed off for traffic during the rescue.
The Johannesburg Metro Police Department attended the scene.
