A 30-year-old man from Norfolk is expected to appear before magistrates after a three-year-old boy ended up inside a crocodile enclosure at a Cambridgeshire wildlife park, leaving him critically injured.

Cambridgeshire Police said officers were called to Johnsons of Old Hurst, near Huntingdon, at 1.24pm on Thursday, 18 June, following reports of an incident involving a young child at the zoo. The boy was taken to Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge, where he remains in a critical but stable condition. Specially trained officers are supporting his family.
