Seven-Year-Old Crushed To Death In Freak Accident At Ta’ Kandja Quarry Identified As Nicholas Zammit
The seven-year-old boy who tragically lost his life after he was run over by a bulldozer at a quarry in Ta’ Kandja earlier today has been identified as Nicholas Zammit.
Initial reports state that Nicholas had accompanied one of his relatives to the quarry, where he works, early this morning. At around 7am, an unmanned bulldozer slipped down a steep ramp and crushed the young boy to death.
Nicholas’ school, St Benedict’s College in Qrendi, and the Qrendi FC football nursery, which he attended, offered their condolences.
“Nicholas, we will never forget you. Thank you for the time you spent with us, you always had a smile on your face and a positive attitude,” the school said.
“Dear God, grant him eternal rest, keep him close to your other angels and give comfort to his family in these difficult times,” the football nursery said.
