Action hero helps play park fall victim

The Bristol Evening Post reports that an Ormonds Close man helped save a youngster injured in a Bradley Stoke play park by plugging a hole in the child’s head with his finger, in order to stop blood spurting from a wound.

The child is said to have struck his head when doing a back flip from the top of a climbing frame in the park.

The accident happened at around 3:30pm on Good Friday and the paper is now trying to help rescuer Craig Gardiner get in touch with the injured child, who is named as ‘Ademme’.
