Johannesburg ? Twenty-three people were killed and nine injured when two trucks collided on the R40 Bushbuckridge road on Wednesday, Mpumalanga police said.
Superintendent Abie Khoabane said a KFC truck collided with a smaller truck transporting workers to a nearby plantation.
He said the trucks were travelling in the same direction when the KFC truck driver lost control and pushed the smaller one off the road.
"Both trucks rolled down into a ditch. Twenty three people were killed and nine were injured.
"We are still searching for anyone who may still be trapped under the truck," said Khoabane.
