The aftermath of the collapse, attendees look on

Four people have been killed and eleven others seriously injured after a wall collapsed on them in Thokgwaneng village outside Lebowakgomo in Limpopo.

The incident happened on Saturday during a wedding.

According to the police, people attending the wedding ceremony were reportedly seated in a tent that was attached to an unroofed building.

Chaos broke when a storm blew up the tent and in the process, the wall collapsed- killing three people instantly.

The fourth person succumbed to injuries in hospital.

Police spokesperson Motlafela Mojapelo says the process of identifying the deceased has begun and their identities will be revealed after their next-of-kin are informed.

In the video below, Mojapelo says investigations are continuing:
