Devastated mum pays tribute to 'sunshine boy' killed after being struck by tractor on farm

A heartbroken mum has paid tribute to her "little sunshine" boy after he was struck by a tractor on a farm.

Albie Speakman, three, died following the horrifying incident on farmland off Bentley Hall Road in Bury, Greater Manchester, at around 12.45pm on Saturday July 17. The youngster's devastated mum Leah has described her boy as "affectionate and caring" following the tragedy.

We told yesterday how Albie's family flagged down an ambulance as they drove the boy to hospital following the incident. Enquiries by local CID alongside colleagues at the Health and Safety Executive are ongoing, reports the Mirror. The tractor driver is understood to be helping with the investigation.
