Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 81806, member: 636"] A wrong-way crash at an intersection killed six people. A head-on collision between a sedan and a minibus taxi on the R26 outside Fouriesburg in South Africa's Free State left three people dead in each vehicle, with twenty-one others injured. Police said the driver of a white Kia sedan, a twenty-one-year-old man, failed to stop at an intersection and hit a white Mercedes-Benz minibus traveling from Ficksburg to Tshwane. Emergency crews worked overnight after the Saturday incident. The sedan carried five people total, with two survivors taken to the hospital in serious condition. The taxi had twenty-two occupants, including the driver, with nineteen injured passengers transported to medical facilities in Bethlehem and Bohlokong. Authorities have opened a culpable homicide investigation at the Fouriesburg police station. The names of those killed and hurt will not be released until families are notified. [/QUOTE]
