Boy strangled by electric window

A FIVE-YEAR-OLD English boy was strangled when his head got stuck in an electric car window.

Neighbours said the boy, believed to be Michael Dury, was playing with his younger brother Jonathan in the vehicle when his neck became trapped in the window.

His mother, Wendy Broughton, parked the car outside their home in New Addington, Croydon, Surrey, but left the engine running, meaning the electrics were still working.
