BLACKSPOT CLAIMS TWO MORE LIVES
Two people died in a fatal crash on the Harare-Chirundu Highway on Tuesday night.
The accident occurred at the Susunje River blackspot around 11pm, involving a Honda Fit and a haulage truck. The truck was traveling from Kariba to Harare, while the Honda Fit, with two people on board, was heading in the opposite direction.
A second truck, also involved in the incident, left the scene shortly after the crash. Workers from the Department of Roads were clearing debris to facilitate traffic flow when visited by Zimpapers on Wednesday morning.
Zimbabwe Republic Police spokesperson Inspector Ian Kohwera confirmed the accident, directing further inquiries to national spokesperson Commissioner Paul Nyati.
According to witnesses, the truck heading towards Harare was side-swiped by the second truck, causing it to lose control and resulting in the fatal head-on collision.
