A tragic accident has led to the death of a young boy in the UK when he crashed his new mini-motorbike into a metal post.

According to the Metro, 4-yr-old Jacob Gamlin-Turner died after colliding with the post, suffering serious head injuries and internal bleeding.

Little Jacob had been eager to take part in riding bikes as his older brother had gotten involved in the sport.  After buying him a new bike, his parents took him to a sports field to try it out but he lost control of the bike and veered out of control, crashing into the metal post.

His dad tried to stop the accident but he was unable to save Jacob, who died later in hospital.
