17 Mar 2018, Vereeniging: One man was killed and eight others injured, two of the critically, when a bakkie rolled on the R54 in Vereeniging, late last night.

ER24 Paramedics, along with other services, arrived on the scene to find the bakkie lying on its side on the side of the road. Several people were found lying around the vehicle.

Paramedics assessed the patients and found that one man lay trapped beneath the overturned bakkie. Unfortunately, nothing could be done for him and he was declared dead.
