Toddler run over by bulldozer

A 14-MONTH-OLD girl was last night fighting for her life, after being run over by a bulldozer working next to her grandma’s house.

According to the police last night, for reasons that still haven’t been clarified, the toddler had been in the care of her grandmother when she wandered off into a field next to the house. At that time, a man who was busy clearing out the field with his bulldozer and was clearly unaware of the child’s presence, reversed over the 14-month-old.

She was taken to Paphos General Hospital, where she was put on life support and rushed off to Nicosia General Hospital due to the seriousness of her condition.

Doctors last night described her condition as “extremely critical”.
