One person has died as a result of injuries sustained when a temporary scaffolding collapsed at a concert at the Cape Town Stadium due to high winds.
Sixty-five people were injured when the bus they were travelling in overturned on a dirt road near Nongoma, about 300km north of Durban, on Friday morning, according to KwaZulu-Natal Emergency Medical Services (KZN EMS).
"The bus had 65 people on board at the time and they all sustained serious injuries," said spokesperson Robert McKenzie.
The cause of the accident was not immediately clear.
KZN EMS dispatched six ambulances, two advanced life support paramedics and a patient transport bus to assist the injured.
Emergency workers and paramedics from private ambulance companies also responded to the accident scene.
"Together they worked in the blazing sun to treat and stabilise the 65 patients before transporting them to Benedictine Hospital for further care," said McKenzie. – Sapa
