Taxi Accident near Mopani

Post by PennyinSA »

Apparently there has been an accident near Monance involving a taxi, another vehicle and a giraffe. Entire topic pulled off San parks Facebook page by mods. I cannot see it as for whatever reason I am considered non personae grata but it was only up for 10 min. Ambulances and helicopter in attendance.

Sanparks-The nearest available medical helicopter is in Nelspruit hence the decision to dispatch the SANParks one for support. Medical emergency vehicles are on their way to the scene.
