According to The Sun: A girl who attended school died as a result of being hit by a pickup truck while returning home on her scooter. Five-year-old Isla Metcalf left her family 'completely shattered' after the 'happy' child became a victim of an accident near the school.
Isla, described as 'bubbly and full of life', was struck by a municipal truck around 3:45 PM.
“We will never recover from this grief,” said a family member of the girl.
This tragic event has drawn the attention of the local community, which is deeply in mourning and ready to support the family in this difficult time.
