In north-eastern South Africa two British female students have been killed in a road accident, according to emergency services. In the crash east of Johannesburg, near Nespruit, at least 18 other people were injured. They do not know if they are football fans but it is thought that all the injured are British and Canadian tourists. The truck swerved and overturned on a road near Nelspruit and some of the injured were trapped under the truck for a period of time, said the local reporters. It is still not all clear whether they were actually football fans.
Opinion
I feel very sorry for the parents of the two British women who were killed in the accident and hope the people who are injured recover soon. It is very heart-braking when you read that some were trapped under the truck but they are hopefully still alive. I sincerely hope police find outs who they are and what they were doing there but I think they were foot- ball fans because the World Cup is being held in South Africa, near the place of the accident.
