A total of seven people, including pedestrians, were injured this morning when a bus allegedly crashed into a funeral convoy being escorted by traffic officers.
The bus then veered off a low-level bridge and came to a stop off the road along the R61 near Corhana village between Mthatha and Libode.
Health spokesman Sizwe Kupelo said the injured have been taken to Mthatha Regional hospital.
Kupelo said it has been alleged that the bus first collided with a traffic vehicle, then a Quantum bus. A truck hit a Kombi and overturned in the ensuing chaos.
