23 2003 by Nicky
Tabarn, Liverpool Echo
A WOMAN died after she was knocked over and trapped under a forklift
truck. The 51-year-old died instantly after the accident on the main
shopping street in Southport. Police, fire and ambulance were called
to Lord Street just after 10am today (Wednesday, April 23). An
ambulance spokesman said: "A 51-year-old woman was trapped under a
vehicle. She died at the scene." Police said the woman was run over
by the truck outside the town hall. A spokesman said: "A woman,
believed to be local, became trapped under a forklift truck.
"Police, fire and ambulance were all at the scene to try and free
her. "The health and safety executive are now looking into the
incident." The fire service sent a special rescue unit to help free
the woman. A spokesman said: "We sent two appliances after receiving
reports that somebody was trapped under a vehicle. We also had a
special rescue unit which has specialised equipment." The forklift
truck driver was taken to Southport and hospital suffering from
shock. Val Rimmer, 48, rushed to help the woman as she lay
underneath the vehicle. Mrs Rimmer said: "They were the worst
injuries I have ever seen. I didn't know if she was alive. "She was
lying between the back wheels. I could see her arms and I tried to
find her pulse, but she was unconscious. "I held her hand and waited
until the emergency services arrived."
