A man was killed and another injured when a taxi and a truck crashed on the N7 in Philadelphia, Cape Town on Monday evening.

When emergency services arrived on the scene, they found the taxi still partly stuck underneath the truck.

The driver was trapped under the truck.

"Sadly, he showed no signs of life and was declared dead at the scene. A passenger, believed to have been in the front of the taxi, was found on the scene," ER24's Russel Meiring said.

The passenger explained that he climbed out of the wreckage shortly after the collision.

 He was treated on scene and later transported to hospital for further treatment.

The exact circumstances surrounding the collision are not yet known.
