13 year Old who was struck down by a car after he ran out on a road near his grandparents home in County Cork, Ireland in 2008, has been awarded five million Euros (€5m) by a high court after his father sued the driver.

The Accident that happened in August 2008 left the boy, Ryan Bastin intellectually impaired after he suffered a fractured skull and spending months in hospital for operations and rehabilitation.

Approving the settlement, Mr Justice Kevin Cross said he determined the case as 60% liability against the driver.

The judge wished the boy, who loves to ride horses and his family all the best and wished him luck with the horse riding.
