Pedestrian killed in N2 accident near Toti
A pedestrian has been killed on the N2 freeway near the Doonside off-ramp in the vicinity of Amanzimtoti, south of Durban.
It's understood the man was struck by a bakkie, transporting six people, travelling on the northbound carriageway at about 8.20pm yesterday.
Emergency services say the man's body was found about 100 metres from where the vehicle came to a stop. Netcare911 says he was declared dead on scene.
A woman who'd been travelling in the bakkie was treated on scene before being taken to hospital.
While the exact cause of the accident is still unknown, reports from the scene suggest the man was being chased by a group at the time.
