A mother has died and her 13 year old daughter has sustained some injuries following a single vehicle incident on the R33 near Hanover this morning.
The cause of the incident is unclear at this stage, but the bakkie had allegedly veered out of control before leaving the road. The bakkie then overturned numerous times before coming to a standstill on its roof.
When ER24 paramedics arrived at the scene they found that the mother had sustained various fatal injuries. She was unfortunately later declared dead at the scene. Paramedics treated the 13 year old daughter at the scene for suspected back and neck injuries as well as various scrapes and bruises.
She was later transported to a nearby medical facility for further treatment. Local law enforcement officials attended the scene and will be investigating the incident further.
