Eyewitnesses told FrontPage Africa that truck carrying timber lost control of its breaks and rolled into Rep. Lawrence’s jeep, killing him and a lady who was in the front passenger seat of his car. Three others who were in the back seat are said to be responding to treatment.

It took the police and rescuers several hours to remove his body from the car.

As I speak to you, there is no way to get the body out of the car.”
