"In the house next door, which was very close to where everything was collapsing, a person hadn't been evacuated. We went in and found that a man had slipped and fallen.""He had cracked his head open and also sustained some serious [suspected] spinal injuries." said Botha.
The resident was stabilised in the home before being carried across the water to a nearby petrol station.
He was then transported by ambulance to a nearby hospital.
