Two Minors Killed As Overloaded Honda Fit Vehicles Collide

In what appears to be greed and recklessness on the part of Mushikashika drivers, two Honda Fit vehicles, carrying a combined 17 passengers, were involved in a head-on collision along Ruwazi–Igava Road, Marondera on Monday, 23 January.

Police said one of the vehicles was carrying 8 passengers while the other one was carrying 9 passengers when the accident occurred yesterday afternoon.

Posting on their official Twitter account, police said two people died on the spot following the accident while several other passengers were injured. Police said:
