The accident occurred in Masvingo on Thursday along the Beitbridge-Masvingo Highway when a vehicle turning into Clipsham Views residential area hit another coming from Beitbridge.

Mapanzure was in a vehicle and his sister was the driver. His nephew, his sister’s son, died in the fatal crash. Pictures from the scene of the accident show the wreckage of a maroon Toyota Vitz vehicle. It was damaged beyond repair while a grey car it collided with was at a distance on the tarred road. The damage on the vehicles showed they should have collided head-on.
