Mandela grandaughter killed in crash

The big man will miss the opening ceremony





The 13-year-old was returning back from the World Cup kickoff concert when she died in a crash near Johannesburg.
More from TIME’s Alex Perry:

“Police are not saying much about the circumstances of the crash, only that it happened when the car in which Zenani Mandela was traveling tried to take an off-ramp to leave the M1 highway as it passed through the center of Johannesburg. No other vehicle was involved. Mandela’s ex-wife Winnie Madikizela, also in the car, was treated in hospital, though her injuries are not thought to be serious. Police say the driver, who has not been named, is being investigated for probable homocide, indicating they suspect negligence. Bill Saporito and I were also driving on the same road minutes before the crash, also coming back from the concert at Orlando Stadium. The M1 — Johannesburg’s central thoroughfare of three to five lanes — was well-lit, well-signposted and traffic was thin.”

Mandela, 91, will not attend this morning’s World Cup opening ceremonies. Read the full report on TIME’s World Cup blog.

That was a shock, sad and needless.

A very sad story indeed.

This story underscores the dangers of drunk driving.
