A 13-YEAR-OLD friend of Les Banques crash victim Callum Eborall was one of the first on the scene, it emerged yesterday.

David Waterman had been fishing on the beach across the road from his house when he heard the crash and ran to help, only to find it was his friend, 11-year-old Callum, who had been hit by a motorcycle.

‘David said there were two other people there. He went over to Callum and said: “Come on mate, get up”.

‘He has been quite traumatised,’ said his mum Michelle, 43, a civil servant, who was not in Guernsey on Friday night when the accident happened.

She said David, who goes to St Sampson’s High School, which shares the Baubigny site with Callum’s Le Murier School, had been run over on the nearby zebra crossing three months ago.

She said something had to be done about the traffic along the seafront.

‘It’s terrible around here and there are a lot of children who live in the area. Several people have been hurt on that zebra crossing. Who is going to be next?’ asked Ms Waterman.
