Girl badly injured after stepping on a hot barbecue buried in sand on beach

A seven-year-old girl was badly injured after stepping on a hot barbecue which had been buried in the sand on a beach. Simi Adenaike, 7, and her mum, Alex Adenaike, were all set to enjoy a day at the seaside with their family.

They hadn't been on the beach for long when the incident occurred, which resulted in the youngster being left in agony and possibly needing surgery. Simi's mum, Alex, said the children had been running around on the sand when she heard a 'horrifying scream.'

She explained: "We had only just arrived at the beach and were looking forward to having some fun. The children started playing almost immediately and had been running around in the sand. We heard a horrifying scream and my daughter came running back.
