Teen boy, 17, died after being speared by shard of glass when he fell through greenhouse in freak accident | The Sun

A TEEN boy died after he was speared by a shard of glass when he fell through a greenhouse, an inquest heard.

Mohammed Qais Ratyal, 17, and his pals had been setting off rockets and jumping over fences on Bonfire Night last year when the horror unfolded.

Tragically, the teen jumped over a high fence unaware there was a greenhouse below in the garden in Halifax, West Yorkshire.

He was stabbed by a shard of glass that punctured his chest causing a collapsed lung and catastrophic haemorrhage.

Qais' cousin, Ummat Ratyan, told an inquest he heard "shouting" as the teen hopped the fence and smashed through the glass building.

He said he found his cousin "sitting and leaning forwards, but he didn't speak and his body flopped and his hands were trembling.

Detective Sgt Ellis told the inquest CCTV showed the group letting off fireworks in the street before they "started to scale fences into the allotments".

He added: "The CCTV captured a group of males jumping over a fence.

"You could hear a crash into the greenhouse and footage showed a figure – Qais – lying on the ground.

"It was a high fence. He wouldn't have known that the greenhouse was there."

Coroner Ian Pears ruled an accidental verdict at the inquest in Bradford.

Speaking after, Qais' mum Nargis Ijaz said: "Qais was born on May 25, 2005, at Bradford Royal Infirmary. He was a happy healthy child who had an older brother and younger sister.

"He played football for Sandy Lane and at his school, Dixons Trinity. His favourite players were Messi and Neymar.

"But boxing was his true love. He boxed at local clubs and wanted to box when he was older.
