Mpumalanga minibus taxi crash: Death toll increases to 9 as driver charged with culpable homicide<\/p>\n

The driver of the car was killed in the accident, said ER24 spokesperson Russel Meiring.<\/p>\n

“Medics assessed the patients and found that a man from the light motor vehicle had sustained fatal injuries. Unfortunately, nothing could be done for him, and he was declared dead,” said Meiring.<\/p>\n

Fourteen people who had been travelling in the taxi had injuries ranging from minor to moderate.<\/p>\n

“The patients were treated and later transported to nearby hospitals for further care. The details surrounding this incident are unknown, but local authorities were on the scene for further investigations,” said Meiring.<\/p>\n
