Woman killed in car accident inferno

A woman believed to be in her early 20s was burnt beyond recognition when a car she was travelling in caught fire after a head on collision close to Mzilikazi Barracks along the Bulawayo-Harare highway on Friday night.

The woman is believed to have been a resident of Elangeni Institute of Training and Development Centre in Bulawayo.

Although police could not confirm the accident, reporters established that the woman was burnt after the Honda Fit she was travelling in was involved in a head on collision with a mini-bus at about 11pm on Friday night along the Bulawayo-Harare highway, a few metres from Mzilikazi Barracks (formerly Brady Barracks). Bulawayo police spokesperson Inspector Precious Simango said she was yet to receive the report.

The driver of the mini-bus is said to have encroached onto the oncoming lane to make way for a Mercedes Benz resulting in the head-on collision with the Honda Fit. state media
