Boy Dangles From Beam After Truck Crash

A child has been rescued from a truck which overturned on a busy junction in Israel - leaving him dangling over a massive drop.

Footage from the accident showed the boy screaming as he hung precariously from a concrete beam.

Although his father was also trapped in the truck, the emergency services managed to free him quickly.

Shalom Levi, a spokesman for the fire service, said: "There were many forces at the scene and two cranes were deployed.

"After working in very stormy conditions and very strong rain, we managed to rescue the child and transfer him for treatment in an ambulance."

There has been no further word on the child's condition following Saturday's accident at Somech Junction on Route 79.
