Kurunjang tragedy: Boy dies after pinned to garage wall

A NINE-year-old boy has died in hospital after being pinned between a car and a garage wall in Kurunjang last week.

Emergency services were called to the Foxami Lane house in Kurunjang, near Melton, last Thursday morning where they found the boy pinned to the rear wall of the garage.

He was flown to the Royal Children’s Hospital in a critical condition.

A Victoria Police spokesman said the boy died as a result of his injuries about 12.30pm today.

A report will be prepared for the Coroner but the death will not be added to the road toll as it occurred on private property.
