At least three people were injured in a collision on the N9 near Burgerbrug after two cars collided head-on there. The cars are badly damaged and the road is closed.
It is not yet known how the accident could have happened. This is now being investigated.
A bystander said a person was trapped, but police cannot confirm this yet. The condition of the victims is unknown. It can be seen that many emergency services are ready for help, and a trauma helicopter has also landed.
Traffic is advised to detour.
