Young man killed in Blue Hills in Midrand

A young man has sadly been killed this morning after he was knocked down by a bus while he was trying to cross over Summit Road in Midrand just near the Blue Hills intersection.

“It was just before 7am that paramedics arrived on scene to find the remains of the young man lying in the road. He appeared to be around the age of 19, and his backpack filled with books lay nearby. His injuries had been so extensive that he had died on scene prior to the arrival of medical care. No more could be done to try and revive the young man and he was declared dead”, said Vanessa Jackson Of ER24.

No one in the passenger bus was injured as a result of the collision.

Local police attended the scene and they will be investigating all necessary details into what exactly took place.
