At least four people have died and two others injured following a road traffic accident along the Harare - Shamva Road, police have confirmed.
The crash occurred on Wednesday near Madziwa Mine at the 71km peg when the driver of a Toyota Hilux lost control. The vehicle, carrying five passengers, veered off the road, overturned several times, and eventually landed on its wheels.
"Four people died on the spot while two others were injured. The bodies of the victims were taken to Shamva Hospital mortuary for post-mortem while the injured were referred to the same institution for treatment," said police spokesperson Commissioner Paul Nyathi.
Authorities warned that the accident highlights the ongoing risks on Zimbabwe's roads and urged motorists to exercise caution, particularly on highways prone to speeding and loss of control.
