Police were called to a report of a child falling from a height in Plaistow around 6am on Thursday. After one neighbour ran out to help, they were said to have 'turned back shaking' from the scene of the incident.
A six-year-old boy has died after falling from an apartment block in east London. Police said they were called just before 6am this morning to reports a child had fallen from a height near Plaistow. A neighbour who rang the emergency services after the incident said the child's father was left inconsolable. Ansert Davis, who lives in Jacob's House, said he saw the boy's father after the tragic fall. 'He's rolling on the floor, saying his son.
Visibly emotional, he added: 'I keep seeing the image in my head. It's so sad, I've got a grandkid about this age. Oh my God, it's like seeing your own kids.' The Metropolitan Police said that their own officers, along with personnel from the London Fire Brigade, London ambulance and air ambulance services were in attendance.
