Updated | By Catrine Malan

A five-month-old baby, three children, and six adults were killed in the accident on the N1 about 40km outside Bloemfontein, near Edenburg, before 6am, ER24 spokesman Werner Vermaak said in a statement.
It was understood there were 14 people in the bakkie. The only occupant of the truck, the driver, was unhurt.
"Three people, including one child, survived this horrific incident and were rushed off to a nearby hospital for further medical care. All of them are in a critical condition."
SABC news reported that the truck and Ford Bantam bakkie collided head-on when the bakkie ignored a stop sign at roadworks.
Transport Minister Dipuo Peters sent condolences to the families of the victims.
"I am deeply saddened by this tragic occurrence and I would like to express my sincere condolences to the families, the friends and relatives of those who lost their loved ones and wish those who are injured a speedy recovery," she said in a statement.
The Road Traffic Management Corporation had sent a team to investigate the accident.
