Yesterday's incident at Studland was a little odd.......Our tasking brief from Portland MRCC was a young male at Studland with a serious head and neck injury, Ambulance on scene asking for assistance.
We headed off rather sharply thinking the worse. Having located the group at Fort Henry we asked the paramedics what had happened, thinking the young chap had perhaps fallen off fort Henry.
What we were told next rather shocked us, one of the school group had hit this chap over the head with a clip board, the metal clip had caused a very nasty cut to the head.
There was no doubt it was a nasty cut and made the young man pass out. Due to him collapsing he had to be treated for a neck injury so he was carefully prepared to be airlifted to Dorchester hospital.
A small prank that caused a nasty injury......not had one of these before!

It was nothing like that because he never had a serious neck injury and it wasn't serious and neither did the boy hit him with the metal clip, it was the side of the clipboard. Being the person who accidentally hit the boy-who was one of my friends- I think I know what happened and it all started like this... A boy stepped in dog poo and a few people teased him but he decided that he was angry so he tried to wipe it on me,but missed so instead he hit me with the clipboard as it hurt I hit him back and a few mins after he started to bleed and I took him to first aid.
Well Matthew, thank you for your honesty. At the time we have to take the paramedics advice and treat him as if he had a neck and head injury until he's in hospital and can be checked by the Doctors.
We are glad it was'nt as serious as 1st thought.
