About five people were killed and four others - including an infant - were injured in a horror crash on the R67 between Grahamstown and Port Alfred on Sunday afternoon, Eastern Cape police have confirmed.

The condition of the injured could not be confirmed, he said.
"Emergency services are still at the scene. Drivers using the R67 to exercise caution and patience whilst the services complete their duties," Mali said.
