Ogies-A man believed to be in his 40’s passed away last night when the bakkie he was travelling in left the road and overturned in the early hours of this morning.

ER24 Paramedics were dispatched to the N12 near Ogies, where they found the man outside the vehicle, possibly being flung out during the rollover.

The vehicle was found beside the road in a field where it came to a standstill after it overturned.

“Unfortunately nothing further could be done to help him and he was declared deceased on the scene” Er24 spokesperson Vanessa Jackson said.

No other vehicles were involved and it is unclear what had caused the incident.-TDN
