A one-year-old boy has been killed after a recovery truck crashed into a wall in Birmingham, West Midlands Police say.
Officers were called to Queens Road in the Stechford area of the city at around 5pm on Monday following a report a recovery truck had hit a wall which then fell on to the child.
The boy suffered a serious head injury and was pronounced dead at the scene.
He has not been formally identified.
Investigators are working to establish what happened, and the road is likely to be closed for some time between Sedgemere Road and Broadstone Road.
Inspector Paul Bennett said: "This is a very tragic set of circumstances - words cannot describe what his family are going through and our thoughts are with them at this time.
"Specialist officers will be supporting the boy's family and - as with all serious and fatal collisions - an investigation has been launched to establish the cause."
West Midlands Ambulance Service said there had been desperate efforts to save the boy.
A spokesman said: "A rapid response vehicle was on scene within four minutes of the call and was backed up by an ambulance, a paramedic officer, an emergency doctor and the Warwickshire and Northamptonshire Air Ambulance.
"Ambulance staff carried out advanced life support but sadly nothing could be done to save him and he was confirmed dead at the scene."
:: Anyone with information about what happened should call police on 101 and ask for the Collision Investigation Unit quoting log 1637 16/3/2015.
