One injured in police and residents stand off

According to one source, police fired teargas and rubber bullets, and residents trampled over each other as they scurried to flee. It is alleged that the victim was rushed to Jwaneng Mine hospital for treatment and later referred to Princess Marina hospital in Gaborone.

Jwaneng Police station officer Assistant Superintendent Kitsiso Lemogang, refuted allegations that they registered one injury, insisting that the only individual who sustained injured was the truck driver, when the accident occurred. He said that they received a report that two horse and trailer trucks had collided near Jwaneng mine airport in the early morning of Thursday.
