Inquest brings parents’ long wait to end

A BOY killed when a pick-up truck reversed into him on a Dublin building site may have been struck by a second works vehicle, an inquest heard yesterday.

Four-year-old Alex Cuthbert, of Ballymun, Dublin, was sitting on a kerb playing with a paper aeroplane when a 21-foot Iveco vehicle struck him.

Dublin City Coroner’s Court was told it couldn’t be ruled out that a dumper truck driving nearby also hit the youngster on August 22, 2001.
