A Dunoon woman has died after an accident along the N7 highway on Saturday (22 April).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Traffic on the highway between the Potsdam and Plattekloof off-ramps moved slowly shortly after 08:00 as motorists slowed down after police closed one lane. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
TygerBurger saw police officers on the scene and the woman\u2019s body had been covered with a blanket. A few metres away a damaged Dunoon taxi could be seen on the highway. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bothasig police spokesperson, Warrant Officer Jacques Mostert, says at about 06:00 the woman was crossing the highway from Dunoon making her way to Richwood when she was hit by the taxi. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
At this stage, he says police have been unable to identify the woman. \u201cThe people say she is from Dunoon but don\u2019t know her name. Bothasig police have opened a case of culpable homicide.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anyone who witnessed the incident is asked to call Bothasig police on 021 559 9400. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
