Child killed in horrific N3 Howick crash
A six-year-old child has been killed and three others injured in an accident involving three vehicles on the N3 Highway near Howick earlier today.
Paramedics found a light motor vehicle and a bakkie lying in the middle of the road, while a truck was parked a few metres away.
ER24's Russel Meiring says the child, ejected from one of the vehicles, died at the scene. His body was found lying on the front seat of the light motor vehicle.

Meanwhile, at least 18 other people are recovering in hospital following two separate car accidents in the province.
Last night, 13 people were injured in Wentworth, south of Durban, when two cars collided.
Earlier today, paramedics attended to another car collision on the M7 under the N2 bridge where five people sustained minor to moderate injuries.
