This is the first picture of 12-year-old Mustafa Madeem who was killed while riding his e-scooter on his way to school.
‘The 12-year-old is believed to have been riding an e-scooter when he collided with a bus on Bordesley Green, near to the junction with Belchers Lane, just before 8am.’
The statement added: ‘He was sadly confirmed dead at the scene. The road remains closed this afternoon while our investigators work to establish what happened.Detective Sergeant Paul Hughes, of the force’s serious collision investigation unit, said: ‘This is an awful tragedy for the young boy’s family and friends, and our thoughts are with them at this time.
‘We’ve spoken to a number of witnesses, but still want to hear from any of the passengers on the bus who we’ve not yet spoken to, or from people who may have captured what happened on dashcam. ‘If people do have footage, we’d ask them not to share it on social media but to send it to us so that we can help establish exactly what happened.”
A spokesman for West Midlands Ambulance said it sent two ambulances and two paramedic officers to the scene.‘Unfortunately, it became clear that nothing could be done to save him and he was confirmed deceased at the scene.’
