An elderly man was killed after his vehicle ploughed through a wall on the fourth level of the parking lot, at a Durban shopping centre.
ALS Paramedics spokesperson, Garrith Jamieson said emergency teams responded to the call just before 12.30 pm.
“Paramedics arrived on scene to find carnage as they found a single vehicle which was on the top floor of the shopping centre parking lot had somehow lost control and ploughed through the parking wall coming to rest on the road below on its roof.
“The driver and only occupant of the vehicle was found severely entrapped in the wreckage, having sustained major injuries, and unfortunately there was nothing Paramedics could do for the man and he was declared deceased on the scene. The man is believed to be in his 70s,” Jamieson said.
