A woman has collapsed and died after waiting for hours in a cash queue in Harare.
She wanted to withdraw $40 from a bank at Joina City in the Harare central business district. She was in the company of her minor child and had come from Murehwa.
According to witnesses, the woman (name withheld) started feeling sick after withdrawing the money.
“The lady began to vomit profusely. She was accompanied to the ladies toilet but people noticed that she was not getting better. An ambulance was called in but as soon as it arrived, she died,” said the witness who preferred anonymity.
Another witness said the deceased was visibly sick when she was waiting in the queue.
“She then told people who were around to call her daughter-in-law in Mabvuku. But before the ambulance could take her to hospital she passed away,” said another witness.
