CHITUNGWIZA – A horrific collision between a 30-tonne haulage truck and a commuter omnibus (kombi) on Tuesday morning along Seke Road at Hunyani Bridge, near Water Works in Chitungwiza, just outside Harare, has resulted in the deaths of at least 17 people.
The Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) has confirmed the accident, with spokesperson Commissioner Paul Nyathi urging patience as investigations unfold and more details are to be released.
