POLICE have warned people who loot goods at accident scenes.

In a statement, national police spokesperson Commissioner Paul Nyathi said it was a serious criminal offence to take advantage of a road traffic accident and start to loot or steal goods from haulage trucks or vehicles.

The call followed the looting of several goods from a haulage truck involved in an accident with an Inter Africa bus along the Harare/Bulawayo Road highway by people from the surrounding community on Sunday.

“The ZRP confirms a fatal road traffic accident which occurred on Sunday at around 0330 hours at the 330 kilometre peg along Harare-Bulawayo Road.

“Seven people were killed when an Inter Africa bus rammed onto the back of a stationary truck.

“The number of the injured victims is yet to be established,” said Comm Nyathi. (@H-Metro)
