Netcare 911 and provincial paramedics arrived on scene and after the initial triage found that two of the commuters sustained serious injuries while a further 12 escaped with only minor injuries – among them a one year old child .
Emergency personnel stabilised all the wounded before transporting them to the Tembisa hospital for further treatment.
