A collision in Bloemfontein leaves several injured

VRMED, Er24, Mangaung fire & rescue, FSEMS college, and other agencies responded early Saturday morning to reports of a head-on collision involving two minibus taxis and a bakkie.

When VRMED arrived, they discovered the bakkie driver stuck inside the vehicle with critical injuries, as well as many patients from taxis with varied degrees of trauma.

VRMED examined the driver swiftly before Mangaung Fire & Rescue extricated him.

The patient was stabilised on the scene before being sent to Bloemfontein Mediclinic for further treatment. Eleven victims were evacuated from the scene to several Bloemfontein hospitals with injuries ranging from minor to critical.
