One dead in KwaZulu-Natal’s Umlazi landslide

Safety and first aid service provider Medi Response attended the scene on Sunday morning after receiving reports of a landslide affecting residential dwellings in the area.

The Medi Response crew, together with the police and Durban metro police search and rescue, established that a landslide had occurred and engulfed a small house. The lone occupant was crushed to death.

Sniffer dogs and their handlers combed the entire area to ensure there were no other casualties or people trapped. The searches came up clean.

Medi Response said management of the scene was handed over to the local police to secure.
