Six killed in Kranskop taxi crash

Initial investigations show that the driver lost control of the vehicle before it crashed down an embankment and rolled several times.

It is believed the vehicle had been heading to Nkandla.

Five people died at the scene due to the severe injuries they sustained.

“Another five people were critically injured and were transported to a nearby hospital,” said IPSS Medical Rescue’s Paul Herbst.

A sixth person, a pregnant woman, passed away in hospital.
