A man from Nottinghamshire and his girlfriend have both broken bones in their backs after a road traffic accident while on holiday in Bali, Indonesia. Alex Hoyle, 28, from West Bridgford, and Joella Senior, 27, from Loughborough, were travelling on a moped when they crashed at around 9.10pm local time on Sunday (June 12) evening, according to close friend Georgie Seel.
Georgie, 26, from West Bridgford, says both are in a critical condition in hospital, requiring multiple surgeries. According to an email sent by Alex's stepfather Andrew Scott on behalf of his mother Amanda Hoyle and father Geoff Hoyle, which Nottinghamshire Live has seen, Alex had six hours of surgery on Thursday (June 16) to stabilise fractured thoracic vertebrae (backbones to which the ribs are attached).
