"Medics assessed the patients and found that the man had sustained numerous injuries and showed no signs of life while the woman had sustained moderate injuries."
"Medics immediately began CPR and provided the man with advanced life support interventions. Unfortunately, after some time, no vital signs returned, and the man was declared dead."
"Once the woman had been treated, she was transported to Edendale Provincial Hospital for further care. The driver of the taxi, fortunately, escaped injury," he said.
Meiring says police are investigating.
