PE school pays tribute to matric learner killed after crash


Westering High School in Port Elizabeth has paid tribute to one of their former learners who died in hospital on Thursday.

The 19-year-old Megan Pretorius, who matriculated last year, died after being hit by a car that was apparently 'spinning' in a street in Newton Park on Saturday night.

Police spokesperson, Colonel Priscilla Naidu says Pretorius and a friend were standing opposite a nightclub in West Street when the driver of a white VW Golf who was allegedly spinning lost control of the car and hit the two women.

They were rushed to hospital, but Naidu says Pretorius succumbed to her injuries a few days later on Thursday.

Police are investigating a case of culpable homicide.
