‘Beautiful’ girl, 2, dies after being hit by car outside holiday park
A two-year-old girl has died after being hit by a car at a holiday park in Cambridgeshire.
Isabella Tucker, from East London, was knocked down at Horsley Hale Farm near Littleport at around 6.45pm on August 25.
The toddler was taken to Queen Elizabeth Hospital in King’s Lynn, but later died of her injuries.
Her mum Vaida Sprainyte said: ‘A beautiful daughter and little sister. It’s so easy to love you. Loved you from first sight and will love you forever.’
Horsley Hale Farm said they were ‘absolutely heartbroken’ at Isabella’s death, and planned to plant a tree in her memory in partnership with other guests who were staying at the time of the tragedy.
They said: ‘She and her family are in all our thoughts and prayers at this time and we offer our deepest condolences to all who knew her.
‘We would like to pay special tribute to the team of staff working that evening who could not have done more to deal with what was a terribly difficult situation.
‘We would also like to thank those medically trained guests staying with us who administered emergency first aid, allowing the Horsley Hale Farm team to look after family members, other guests and effectively get the emergency services on site as soon as possible.’
Cambridgeshire Police said a 42-year-old woman from the Leeds area was arrested on suspicion of causing death by careless or inconsiderate driving.
She has been bailed to return to Thorpe Wood Police Station in Peterborough on November 24.
The force has asked anyone who was at the holiday park and may have witnessed the collision to get in touch using its website, quoting incident reference 35/NT/16816/23.
