Last night, a man was seriously injured when two trucks collided on the N1 near the Potchefstroom offramp in Barrage. ER24 and other services arrived on the scene at 19h37 to find the two trucks in the left-hand lane. On closer inspection, medics found a man in his 40s lying
trapped inside the one truck in serious condition.
The Fire Services had to use specialised equipment to free the man from the truck. Once released, medics treated the man and provided him with pain-relief medication before he was transported to Sebokeng Provincial Hospital for further care. Local authorities were on the scene for further investigations.
