A female in her twenties is fighting for her life after she was hit by a car along Mallibongwe Drive in Randburg this morning. A report from the scene indicates that the lady tried to run across the busy roadway when she landed in front a vehicle that came hurtling down the road.
Netcare 911 advance life support paramedic and the ambulance crew arrived at the scene and found the patient lying on the roadway with life threatening injuries. After placing her on a ventilator and skilfully immobilising her on a trauma board, they airlifted her with the Netcare medical helicopter to the Charlotte Maxeke hospital for the care that she required.
