A 14-year-old boy was killed after a vehicle overturned on the M25 KwaMashu – KZN today (Sunday).
Members of Reaction Unit South Africa (RUSA) were dispatched after the Operations Centre was inundated with calls from members of the public reporting a serious motor vehicle accident.
On arrival at approximately 15:59, Reaction Officers found that a blue Toyota Corolla Quest had overturned multiple times. It is alleged that the 14 year old was driving the vehicle in the eastbound lane when he failed to negotiate a bend, causing the vehicle to veer onto the verge on the extreme right before rolling several times.
The vehicle came to a stop on all four (4) wheels in the opposite lane, facing the westbound direction.
It was established that the boy’s father was a passenger in the vehicle at the time of the incident. The father was allegedly under the influence of alcohol, which resulted in the minor operating the vehicle.
Paramedics assessed the victim who was ejected from the vehicle. He sustained fatal injuries and was declared deceased on scene.
