A two-year-old girl has died after being hit by a car at a holiday park in Cambridgeshire.

Isabella Tucker was struck by the vehicle at Horsley Hale Farm, in Littleport, on Friday and was rushed to Queen Elizabeth Hospital.

The toddler later died of her injuries in hospital, police said on Wednesday.

In a tribute to Isabella, her mother Vaida Sprainyte said: “A beautiful daughter and little sister. It’s so easy to love you.

“Loved you from first sight and will love you forever”.

A 42-year-old woman from Leeds has been arrested on suspicion of causing death by careless or inconsiderate driving.

Horsley Hale Farm is a “small family business” that provides glamping services and keeps alpacas and chickens.

Horsley Hale Farm’s owner and managing director, Stuart Hatton, said his team was “absolutely heartbroken” and that Isabella’s family was in “all our thoughts and prayers”.

He told the BBC: “We would like to pay special tribute to the team of staff working that evening who could not have done more to deal with what was a terribly difficult situation.

“We would also like to thank those medically trained guests staying with us who administered emergency first aid, allowing the Horsley Hale Farm team to look after family members, other guests and effectively get the emergency services on site as soon as possible.”

Cambridgeshire Police urged anyone who was at the holiday park or witnessed the crash to visit to come forward with any information quoting incident 35/NT/16816/23.
