An Angolan national of unknown age died on Saturday in the Omusati Region's Omindamba village after he was run over by a car. According to a police report, the victim - identified as Angula Daudako Mahuku - was lying in the main road between Outapi and Ruacana after having been hit by another vehicle earlier.
