" Due to the critical condition of the patient, a decision was made to call in the medical helicopter to airlift the child to a level one trauma hospital. Two other minors involved in the accident, who were also found to have sustained injuries requiring specialised care, were transported to a hospital.
"Despite all efforts of all involved and rapid intervention, it is with great sadness that we can confirm the three-year-old passed away later that evening in the hospital."
