‘Extremely traumatised’: Mum’s furious message to parents after boy, 5, allegedly seriously injured by 13-year-old e-bike rider in Engadine

Résumé détaillé

A teenager was riding an e-bike through a playground in Sydney when he struck a young boy, leaving him with serious fractures and requiring a wheelchair.

A mum has blasted the family of a teenager on an e-bike who allegedly hit a young boy at a playground in Sydney’s south, leaving him with a fractured leg and requiring a wheelchair.

The 13-year-old was allegedly on an e-bike doing wheelies and riding through the monkey bars section of a playground in Engadine when he struck a five-year-old boy, who was playing with his sisters.

Sitting on the grass, the young child was allegedly hit with the e-scooter, leaving him with a fractured tibia and fibula.

Police were told the 13-year-old boy riding the e-bike did not stop after hitting the young child, instead fleeing the scene.

It wasn’t for another five weeks that the teenager was identified and dealt with under the Young Offenders Act.

However, the mother of the five-year-old has since issued a stern warning to the teenager’s parents.

“An ordinary afternoon at the park has turned into one of the most traumatic experiences our family has endured,” the boy’s mother wrote on social media.

“Sadly we don’t know when this will change or what his future looks like.”

The mother explained the impact the injuries had on the young boy to the teenager’s parents, urging them to think about what life is like for the little boy, now unable to continue life as normal.
