SAD? | Two people from Masvingo, Karen Chapasika (21) and her presumed boyfriend Joseph Chikwanda (29), died tragically when their BMW rolled over several times on the Masvingo–Great Zimbabwe

MASVINGO – Two youth clubbing in town until early hours of the morning died in a road accident along Masvingo – Great Zimbabwe Road on Sunday morning.

Sources told Masvingo Mirror that the three were last seen at midnight at San Siro and they were retrieved from the car wreckage around 4am in the morning. It is not clear what time nightclubs close at but sources said it must be 11pm.

Their BMW was reduced to a wreck.

Police Spokesperson, Kudakwashe Dhewa confirmed the accident to Masvingo Mirror and identified the deceased as Karen Chapasika (21), a former student at Masvingo Christian College and Joseph Chikwanda (29). Dhewa however, said the third person is in critical condition in hospital and cannot be named because the next of kin are yet to be identified.

Sources said the deceased were boyfriend and girlfriend and the third was a stepsister to Karen. It is not clear where the trio was travelling to as Karen was said to be a resident of Sisk in Masvingo. Police reports however, indicate that both Karen and her alleged boyfriend came from Village 27 Manyama and were probably on their way to the village.

A source who spoke to Masvingo Mirror on condition of anonymity said that she saw the vehicle wreckage at around 2am in the morning and thought that the occupants had been taken out. She was surprised when she passed through the same place at 4am to see the injured being taken out of the car.

“On 7 September 2025 around 0400 hrs, Joseph Chikwanda (29) was driving along Great Zimbabwe road with 2 passengers in his car. When he was at the 6 km peg he lost control of his vehicle which veered off the road to the right. The vehicle overturned several times and landed on its roof,” said Dhewa.

Business Liability Insurance for Small Businesses

Every business faces risk. A customer could slip and fall, a product could cause damage, or a client could claim your service caused financial loss. Business liability insurance helps protect small businesses from costly claims and lawsuits.

The most common type is general liability insurance. It may cover bodily injury, property damage, personal injury, advertising injury, and legal defense costs.

Why Small Businesses Need Coverage

Without small business insurance, one lawsuit could create major financial problems. Even if your business did nothing wrong, legal defense costs can be expensive.

Businesses that rent office space, work with clients, sell products, or operate in public should consider liability coverage.

Types of Commercial Insurance

Commercial insurance may include general liability, professional liability, workers compensation, commercial auto, cyber liability, and property insurance. The right policy depends on your industry and risk level.

Final Thoughts

Business liability insurance is an important part of protecting your company. Before buying a policy, compare business insurance quotes and make sure the coverage matches your operations.

First Offense DUI Lawyer: What Happens After Your First DUI Arrest?

A first DUI arrest can be frightening, especially if you have never been in trouble before. A first offense DUI lawyer can explain the process and help protect your rights.

rnrn

After an arrest, you may face both criminal court and a license-related administrative process. These are separate issues. Missing a deadline for a license hearing can cause problems even before the court case is resolved.

rnrn

Penalties for a first DUI may include fines, probation, alcohol education, community service, license suspension, ignition interlock, and possible jail time. The outcome depends on state law and the facts of the case.

rnrn

A lawyer may review whether the traffic stop was lawful, whether the officer had probable cause, whether tests were accurate, and whether procedures were followed.

rnrn

In some cases, a first-time offender may qualify for reduced charges, diversion programs, or alternative sentencing. This depends on the court and local law.

rnrn

Do not assume a first DUI is minor. A conviction can stay on your record and affect insurance, employment, and driving privileges.

Getting legal advice early can help you understand your options and avoid mistakes that make the situation worse.
