A tragic accident occurred today at approximately 16:30 GMT (4:30 PM) at Container Junction, Rokel, along the Waterloo Highway. A trailer, heading west and carrying another truck on its back, experienced a brake failure as it approached the Waterloo axis. The out-of-control vehicle plowed into a group of people standing at the busy junction.

The accident resulted in the death of a bike rider, while several others sustained injuries. Emergency services were quickly dispatched to the scene, providing immediate medical assistance to the injured. The identities of the victims have not yet been released.

In a startling turn of events, just 30 minutes after the fatal accident, another incident occurred at Companero Junction, located near the previous accident site. Eyewitnesses reported that the situation left many bystanders in shock. Fortunately, no injuries or fatalities were recorded in the second incident.

Authorities are currently investigating the causes of both accidents and are urging drivers to exercise caution, particularly in the affected areas.
