Crime and Crash

A 33 year old lady is in a serious condition after she was involved in a serious car accident on the N1 highway near the Rivonia on ramp.

Paramedics from ER24 EMS that arrived first on the scene, found a silver vehicle completely smashed in the middle of the highway. A lady with serious injuries was lying a few meters from the wreckage.

Paramedics quickly initiated emergency protocol and treated the lady for multiple injuries on the scene. She was stabilized and rushed off to a nearby hospital for further medical treatment.

It is not known if the lady was thrown from her vehicle during the crash or how she got to the side of the road. It is believed that the lady was on her way home when the incident occurred.

Paramedics were informed by numerous bystanders and witnesses on scene that the lady was apparently the victim of crime and not only a car crash.

Witnesses explained that seconds after the car came to a standstill in the middle of the highway, a white taxi stopped and some of the occupants got out and grabbed items from the car before fleeing in the taxi again.
