A-70-year-old man has died after he crashed his car through a boundary wall in a parking lot at The Atruim, Berea, in Overport earlier today.
Garrith Jamieson of ALS Paramedics said that paramedics responded to a serious single-vehicle crash at The Atrium shopping mall. He said that when paramedics arrived, they found a single vehicle crashed through on the top floor of the parking lot after the driver allegedly lost control.
Jamieson said the car crashed through the parking barrier wall down to the road below, landing on its roof.
“The driver was the only occupant in the vehicle and was severely trapped in the wreckage with major injuries. Unfortunately, paramedics were unable to save him. He was pronounced deceased at the scene,” said Jamieson.
He said that the eThekweni Fire Department, SAPS and the Metro Police Search and Rescue unit were present, using the Jaws of Life and other hydraulic equipment to free the man from the wreckage. “The cause of the crash is currently unknown, and SAPS will be conducting further investigation.
“The events leading up to the crash are unknown, however, SAPS were on the scene and will be investigating further,” added Jamieson.
Other reports indicate that the man had a heart attack before he crashed through the wall. However, the information is yet to be confirmed.
