Bride Loses Legs In Wedding Horror
News Interactive: Bride loses legs in wedding horror
A bride-to-be has had both her legs amputated in order to save her life after a road accident on the way to her wedding today.
The 42-year-old woman was being driven to the ceremony in the seaside town of Blackpool, northern England, on a motorised tricycle when her bridal gown got caught between the engine and back wheels, causing her legs to become trapped, rescue services said.
'I have never seen anything like it before,' said local fire officer Tony Robinson, adding that the bride was just a few hundred metres from the wedding venue when the accident happened.
'It was horrific and I'm still suffering from shock myself... This would be a terrible accident at any time but for it to happen on what is supposed to be a happy day, you just can't think of anything worse.'
