Not sure if he lost his legs but we know the woman who was first on the scene and she said his legs were very badly torn and very badly crushed.. Poor little lad.. a terrible thing to happen at any time but how bad to happen on your holidays... Thinking about him.

On a Turkish website it says that the boy hasn't lost his legs. According to a press statement made by the hospital in Antalya, the boys legs are severly damaged with broken bones and cuts.

Apparently a car lost control and hit a parked van. A British family was sitting in the van, which shot forward when hit by the car. The boy got crushed between the van and a wall.
