BGUK_2177222 - *STRICTLY NOT AVAILABLE FOR DAILY MAIL ONLINE USAGE* Police at the scene of a house on Wellbrook Close, Ingleby Barwick, Stockton, Teesside. Collision Investigators and Traffic Police (Cleveland) on scene. Neighbours have said that they believe the lady that lives at the house came out to move her car for the gardener and her child followed. The lady has accidentally ran over her own child. One neighbour who didn’t want to be named said ‘I was sat in the garden enjoying the weather and i just heard screaming, so i went to have a look and the man who lives there was giving CPR to a child and his wife was screaming. It was another neighbour who told me what had happened. I’ll never forget that sound and pray that the child pulls through’. A North East Ambulance Service spokesperson said, “We were called at 12:55 today to reports of a road traffic collision between a car and a child on Wellbrook Close in Ingleby Barwick. We sent a specialist paramedic and two ambulance teams and requested support from the Great North Air Ambulance team, who also attended. We transported the child to James Cook hospital by road in a critical condition with support from the GNAAS doctor on board.” The child is fighting for life. Police at the scene have asked if we can be thoughtful when writing about the story because of how serious and sensitive it is. The child is thought to be female aged around 2 years old.
