Erongo police say the accident occurred around 20h00, approximately 22 kilometres from Karibib towards Omaruru, when a sedan carrying six passengers collided with a truck that was allegedly stationary in the middle of the road in an attempt to make a U-turn.
The driver of the sedan, Cassius Katamo (49), died at the scene alongside passenger Karape Katjivive (66).
