Ava-May Littleboy's relatives told an inquest of the horrific moment when a giant beach inflatable burst and threw the three-year-old high into the air to her death.
London - The aunt of a little girl told an inquest on Monday of the horrific moment when a giant beach inflatable burst and threw her niece high into the air to her death.
‘She was just flipping. When I first looked I saw her face. Her eyes were closed and she didn’t scream or make a noise… her arms and legs were dangling. She flipped over five or six times before she came back down. I just saw her little ponytail.’ Miss Jones tried to revive Ava-May with the help of members of the public and lifeguards before she was taken to hospital.
‘It was like being stuck in a horrible nightmare. It was all happening in front of me and I was hoping I would wake up from it,’ she said. ‘When they said she was no longer alive, it felt my whole world had crashed. I just kept telling her I loved her again and again.’
