Seven killed in KZN crash
Seven people were killed in a crash involving four vehicles on the M35 in the Isipingo area, south of Durban, on Saturday evening.
According to Emer-G-Med the collision involved a truck, two minibus taxis and a light motor vehicle.
"Initial reports from the scene suggest that the brakes of truck failed, leading it to crash into the taxis and car,” said the rescue service's spokesperson Kyle van Reenen.
"Seven occupants from the two taxis were pronounced dead by paramedics at the scene.
"The truck had veered off of the roadway down an embankment into a swamp-like area adjacent to a river in the area."
The exact cause of the crash is not known.
