The Netcare1 helicopter was activated to airlift a critically injured man to hospital, from the R21 highway, after the man was knocked over by a motor vehicle underneath the Olifantsfontein Road Bridge in Kempton Park on Saturday evening.
“The highway was closed off for all traffic in both directions and re-opened after the Netcare1 helicopter was airborne from the scene”, said Santi Steinmann
of Netcare 911.
Exact detail to the cause of the accident and preceding events will remain the subject of a police investigation
