12-yr-old boy sadly dies after collapsing on school field




A 12-year-old boy died after falling on the school playground, reports Metro.

Emergency services attended a school in Shropshire in the UK at around 4pm on Friday after reports of a young boy slumped to the ground.

Joshua Lloyd’s family paid tribute to their late son this morning.

Bystanders are believed to have tried to save him as paramedics made their way to Dawley’s Telford Langley School, reports Metro.

Paramedics took Joshua to hospital, but he was pronounced dead on arrival.

A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: “We were called to reports of a child who had collapsed at Langley School in Dawley, Telford. The first ambulance arrived six minutes after the call and was backed up by a second ambulance, a paramedic manager and the Midlands Air Ambulance from Cosford. On arrival, crews found a patient in a critical condition, already receiving medical support from bystanders. Crews took over and provided advanced care to the child before he was taken on blue lights to Princess Royal Hospital,” reports Metro.
