Layton Darwood died from his injuries after being crushed under the wheels of a trailer.
A man has been found guilty of causing the death of a five-year-old boy who fell under the wheels of a trailer.
Layton Darwood was struck by a van towing the trailer in Willow Avenue, Fenham, Newcastle, in August 2020. The van was being driven by Darren Jacques, 42, from Cumbria, who was disqualified at the time of the crash. Jacques was found guilty of causing the boy's death by driving while disqualified and will be sentenced on on 4 December at Newcastle Crown Court.
On Monday the judge warned Jacques, of Hutton Hill in Penrith, not to expect anything less than a custodial sentence.
