A three-year-old boy was killed after the car he was in with his family overturned in Al Ain.
He is the third youngster to die in a road accident in the Garden
City in the past two weeks. Police said the Arab dad was driving in the
Nahl area of Al Ain city with his wife, daughter and three-year-old son
on Thursday evening when he lost control of the car and crashed into a
pavement. The car subsequently rolled over.
The young boy died at the scene after sustaining severe injuries. His
parents and his sister sustained severe to moderate injuries, police
said.
Authorities have not said whether the boy was in a child car seat. He
was buried in Al Faoaa cemetery in Al Ain on Friday. It is the latest
incident of a child being killed in a road accident in Al Ain.
Last Sunday, a 10-year-old boy was killed after being hit by a
speeding car. The Arab child, who had gone to a shopping mall in the Al
Haili area to make photocopies of his school papers, was crossing the
road when a car driven by an Asian man hit him.
Just days earlier, a six-year-old Arab boy died after being knocked
down by a car in front of his mother and brothers in the Al Tawelah
area. Police have reiterated a message to motorists to strictly follow
traffic rules.
