A seven-year-old Emirati girl suffered from moderate cuts and head injury after the iron front gate fell on her as she was playing in her home front yard in Fujairah.
Medical staff at Fujairah Hospital said that the girl arrived on Saturday afternoon with a minor head injury and moderate cuts and received immediate medical care.
“Her family said that she was playing near the iron front gate when it fell on her but was protected by some furniture placed close to the gate which prevented the door from falling completely on her,” said one of the hospital staff.
