Tragically, despite the efforts of medical staff, one person lost their life at the scene.

Upon arrival, paramedics found one individual in critical condition and fought to save their life, but the injuries were too severe.
Three other people were assessed at the scene and two of them were rushed to the hospital for further treatment.
Fortunately, one patient was able to be treated and released.
