The Southend Tree, which killed the child for decades, was kept for decades

A senior councilor said that the seven -year -old girl collapsed and killed.

Hundreds of flowers and other tributes have been released at Chackwell Park in Southend-On-C after Saturday’s incident, who seriously injured a six-year-old girl.

City councilor and conservative group leader, James Curtain, said that he had memories of playing near the tree in the 1990s, the wood support was eventually upgraded to the metal.

With the inspection of the tree on Monday, an investigation is going on about what happened.

50 people tried to pick up the tree when it trapped five children some time before 15:00 BST, Witnesses told BBC,

Assistant Chief Constable Lucy Morris said that a six -year -old girl was getting “care” in the hospital, surrounded by her family.

The remaining three youth have been treated for minor injuries.

Talking to the BBC, Curtain shared his condolences and best wishes for the little girl in the hospital.

He said that he had been visiting the park for 40 years and there were memories of playing there.

“When I was a child I remember that it supports wood in the 1990s,” he said.

He said that it was since the metal bars supporting it for many years.

Westcliff Cricket Club players were already some who tried to lift the tree after falling.

Mr. Curtain said: “It must have been taken to half the cricket team with others to really move it.

“These are exactly huge branches for a tree which is hundreds of years old.”

Stephen Goodsel, a resident of nearby, is one of the many people who have left tribute at the scene.

Speaking on Sunday, he said that the local people felt “complete numbness, deep shock and sadness”.

“As a father and a grandfather, you hurt to the parents of the children involved,” said the 67-year-old.

“I have not been able to sleep since hearing the news.

“This is just a small gesture that we feel love to suffer children, family and everyone, because we are also suffering.”

Beev Kutd, who was among those who kept flowers, said: “There are many people who saw it, young children who saw it and it should be terrible.”

Labor MP for Southend West and Leh, David Burton-Sampson said: “So much youth is really heartbreaking to lose his life in such a sad situation for someone.

“Both themselves and the rest of the communities have been destroyed.”

Park, west of the city center, is run by the Southnd-on-C City Council.

Council’s labor leader Daniel Kovan said: “It was a painful incident for those involved, who looked at the incident and emergency services.

“I encourage the affected people to seek support.”

A spokesman for health and safety executive said: “Our inspectors will have to go to the site as we continue to support the Essex Police.”
