PICS: Six injured as Joburg taxi crashes into tree

Six people were injured, some critically, when the minibus taxi they were travelling in crashed into a tree on the R114 in Neitgedacht, north of Johannesburg.

On arrival about 30 minutes after midnight, ER24 paramedics, along with another service, found a minibus taxi smashed against a large tree. Four men were found lying inside the vehicle while two others were found lying outside. Rescue medics had to use specialised equipment to free the two trapped men. Once freed, paramedics treated all the patients and provided the two critically injured with advanced life support interventions.
