KYA SAND – CPF appeals to the community to assist families with burial costs.
The Douglasdale Police Station's vehicle crashed into four people and killed them instantly.
The Douglasdale Community Policing Forum has extended a helping hand to the Kya Sand families involved in the fatal pedestrian accident with police.
As reported in Two mothers and their children killed, Week ending 22 June, the accident which occurred on 14 June saw two women and two children knocked down by police on their way home. The vehicle lost control, killing them instantly.
The forum has banded together to help the grieving families with donations and assist with funeral and burial costs. Douglasdale forum member Freda Boiles said they consulted the families and want to provide as much assistance as possible. “We are appealing to the community for donations to help the families to alleviate the costs of burying their loved ones.”
While the families are struggling with the cost of the burials, there is still no word on the investigation into the fatal accident. Independent Police Investigative Directorate (Ipid) has taken over and according to spokesperson Moses Dlamini, the investigation is ongoing.
If you are able to help with donations or related services, please contact Boiles on 084 315 7281 or fredaboiles@gmail.com. Alternatively, make a donation to the Douglasdale Community Policing Forum Bank Account: Nedbank Fourways, Branch Code 168405, Account Number: 1684008441, Reference: Funeral.
