Child airlifted to hospital after being trapped under a car

A 4-year-old girl has been seriously injured following a road traffic collision earlier this morning (Monday, February 20).

The East of England Ambulance Service (EEAST) were alerted to Coppice Mead at 8.28am to a report of a child trapped underneath a car. Ambulance crews from Biggleswade, Letchworth and Melbourne attended the scene. Due to the nature of the call, the East Anglian Air Ambulance (EAAA) were called upon to attend the incident.

Ambulance service spokesman Gary Sanderson said: “The young girl was very poorly on our arrival and following rapid treatment, stabilisation and immobilisation by land and air ambulance crews, she was flown direct to a specialist trauma centre at the Addenbrookes Hospital in Cambridgeshire for further care.”
