Killingworth dad Ian Stevens vividly remembers the call he received from his wife telling him that his daughter had been knocked over by a car.
The pair had been at a pedestrian crossing outside seven-year-old Lucy's school, Amberley Primary, when she was hit by a car.
Fortunately the young student only suffered minor injuries, mostly bruising and shock after rolling on the ground, but the moment has haunted the family since.
