The deceased have been identified as Nansubuga Florence, a passenger on a bike, Ssemfuma, Ssemata Gerald, and Semei Ndondo, all riders, and one person that was also riding yet to be identified.

The bodies of the deceased were conveyed to KCCA mortuary for postmortem examination, while the injured victims were rushed to Mulago Referral Hospital, for treatment.

According to Faridah, the Isuzu ELF truck was to blame for the collision because it lost control as it approached the Kabuusu roundabout from Rubaga Road, striking and knocking five motorcycles and a bicycle.
