He's Not Breathing

Dad’s terror as lightning kills Jordan

- Stephen White

THE stepfather of a boy killed by lightning while playing football yelled “he’s not breathing” after he was struck, an inquest was heard.

Jordan Banks, nine, fell to the pitch just moments after his coaching session ended when thunder broke out.

Stepdad Daniel Begg was in his car watching the training class before the lightning bolt struck.

Paramedic Sharon RileyClarke said he crouched over Jordan and shouted: “He’s not breathing.”
