A baby girl who was killed in a horror crash have been named and pictured. Four-month-old Harper Ayton died on Monday evening at the Playa Blanca resort on the Canary Island, after a car mounted the pavement and ploughed into crowds.
Parents Alex Chadkirk, 28, and Timothy Ayton, 40, along with maternal grandparents Andrea and Derek Chardkirk were also injured in the incident.
The family was rushed to hospital following the crash. Harper’s dad Timothy and grandmother Andrea were the most seriously hurt and are understood to be in intensive care in a nearby hospital. Alex’s dad Derek was also hospitalised though with less serious injuries.
Harper, whose mum proudly showed off her baby daughter in adorable photos following her birth last November, died at the scene despite the efforts of paramedics to save her.
It is alleged the family were hurt, and Harper killed, after an expat who was allegedly over the drink-drive limit mounted the pavement.
The names of the crash victims emerged today as the four Brits remained in hospital in the Lanzarote capital Arrecife.
