A farmer has issued a heartfelt plea to others after his nephew died after falling under the wheels of his tractor. Little Harry Lee, who was four, was riding on the footplate of uncle Brian Nutter's JCB Loader when it hit a bump in the field and he fell off and was then run over.
Despite extensive attempts to resuscitate him, Harry was pronounced dead after being taken to the Royal Blackburn Hospital, LancashireLive reports. He had suffered a catastrophic brain injury in the incident at Sabden Old Hall Farm near Burnley in 2019.
His uncle was later charged with Health and Safety Act offences and was handed a 26-week suspended sentence. He has since spoken words of warning to others to avoid the tragedy that has devastated his family.
