Mother's anguish at London park death

A five-year-old girl has been killed in an accident in which a log broke within a park play area.

Alexia Walenkaki went into cardiac arrest and died in hospital about an hour after the incident at Mile End Park, in east London, on Friday evening.

Her mother, Vida Kwotuah, told the BBC that the accident could have been avoided if play equipment had been "checked properly" and her daughter's death had left a huge void.

The Metropolitan Police and the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) are jointly investigating the death.
