She explained that the motorcycle rider and his two passengers died on the spot while the people in the ambulance were injured and are admitted to the hospital.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe survivors are currently admitted to Kasama General Hospital while the deceased\u2019s bodies are deposited in the Kasama General Hospital Mortuary,\u201d she said<\/p>\n
