Mothers and pupils on the school-run helped lift a car to free a critically injured five-year-old after a crash outside a primary school.
The boy was struck by the black Nissan Juke as he crossed a road outside Launcelot Primary School in Bromley at 3.26pm yesterday.
Police today said he remained in a critical condition in hospital after being treated at the scene for more than an hour.
A 15-year-old pupil said: “People from the primary school and mums were helping. There was about eight of them trying to move the car. He was under the right side of the car.”
A girl, also 15, who lives nearby added: “The boy was screaming and crying and still talking. A woman said he was on his scooter and went under one of the car wheels.”
The female driver of the car stopped at the scene and was not arrested.
