Tuesday, 27 May, 2015 0

A toddler is fighting for his life after he was crushed between two cars at a self-catering holiday complex in Cornwall.

The three-year-old boy from London, who was on holiday with his family, was hit in a private car park at Glynn Barton Cottages near Bodmin, which is close to the Eden Project.

The youngster was trapped between a Vauxhall Astra and a Range Rover when the Astra rolled towards him, according to police reports.

He was initially taken to Derriford Hospital with what have been described as life-threatening injuries, but he has since been transferred to Frenchay Hospital in Bristol
