    Port Alfred emergency services recovered the body of a woman in her 30s from a vehicle driven into the Kowie River around 5.30am on Tuesday 16 March.

    The South African Police Service responded to a report of a vehicle that left Wharf street and drove into the Kowie River, spokesperson Captain Khaya Tonjeni said.
