Two-year-old escapes nursery on her third day and walks half a mile home on her OWN

-
A two-year-old girl escaped from a nursery and walked half a mile back home after an alarming safety breach. Little Louise Hilton was able to leave the pre-school and walk unaided to her home even crossing roads during her 20-minute journey.

The tot’s solo journey took her past a pub, through two underground subways, woodland and past a canal, but still no passer-by stopped her. Louise waddled back through her front door where she told her astonished mother Samantha: “I have walked home on my own, aren’t I a big girl?”

Samantha, 30, who had dropped her daughter off hours earlier, was preparing to pick up Louise at 2.30pm when she answered the door to the youngster at 1.50pm. Police in Runcorn, Cheshire, are now probing the incident yesterday as her father John furiously blasted the nursery for refusing to apologise to them.

The breach happened on only Louise’s third day at the nursery and her parents have vowed she will not return to Windmill Hill Nursery again. Her father John Hilton said: “It is frightening to think what might of happened had the wrong person seen her.

“There is a canal 50 yards from the house and she always tries to jump in and feed the ducks when we go past but she cannot swim.

“The school has not given me an apology and I have contacted the appropriate authorities as I just want every child who goes to that school to be safe.” Mother Samantha added: “Thank God she made it home safely. The security and staff at the nursery are a total shambles.

“She is quite bright and we think she’s spotted a door that was left open and she could get out.

“But the staff at the nursery must be more alert, surely there should be more security in place to stop the kids wandering off.” The family believe Louise went to the toilet unsupervised and walked out of a fire exit which failed to sound an alarm.

Cheshire Police said they were aware of the incident and said early investigations suggested “the child escaped after workmen left a door open”. The police have referred the matter to Halton Council who have notified Ofsted.

A Halton council spokesman added: “We have been providing advice and support to the nursery following notification of the incident.”

A nursery spokesman said: “I have no comment to make.”

An Ofsted spokesman said: “Ofsted takes all safeguarding issues very seriously.

“We are aware of this issue and are now working with the nursery to ensure that children are kept safe at all times.

“It would be inappropriate at this stage to make any further comments as investigations are ongoing.”

Hero dog put out bomb in Second World War by URINATING on it

A medal awarded to a dog for urinating on an incendiary bomb to extinguish it in the Blitz was found during a house clearance. Great Dane Juliana took action when the device fell through the roof of her owner’s home in 1941. In 1944, she got a second Blue Cross Medal for alerting customers to a fire in her master’s shop. Auctioneers found one medal and a portrait, which carried a plaque describing Juliana’s brave deeds, in a Bristol house. The two items sold together for £1,100, more than 18 times the £60 pre-sale estimate. Philip Taubenheim, auctioneer at Wotton Auction Rooms, Glos, said: “These items tell a fantastic story. "One can only assume this was a Great Dane with a great bladder.” Juliana met a sad end in 1946 when she was killed by poison posted through her owner’s letterbox. Mirror

A teenage girl who was left horrifically disfigured in a fire has had a new face grown on her BREAST by doctors. The move follows a similar operation in which another group of Chinese doctors managed to give a car accident victim a new nose by growing it first on his forehead. In the latest operation 17-year-old Xu Jianmei woke up after the operation this week to find that she once again had a chin, eyelids and an ear. But she said best of all she could smile properly for the first time in 12 years since the fire that left her horrifically disfigured when she was just five. The parents had been able to afford plastic surgery to improve her life in any way but that changed when doctors working on the pioneering new technology offered her the chance to have surgery for free. It meant that the girl from the small Chinese fishing village received the face transplant using tissue from her chest in an operation that has now been carried out. The transplant team in...

Bizarre ‘double banana’ found inside a single skin

It turns out there is such a thing as double bananas – and this man has proof. Richard Preece, 33, found the extremely rare fruit in a bunch of bananas he had bought in his weekly shop in Asda. The father-of-three – who has completed charity fun runs dressed as Bananaman – was a little shocked at the bizarre discovery. His wife, Samantha, said: ‘It is the most bizarre coincidence. ‘It was just in a bunch of ordinary bananas so it was a bit of a shock. ‘When Sam opened it up none of us could quite believe it. I never even knew that you could get double bananas. ‘I showed my kids and they were quite amazed as they had never seen anything like it before. ‘When I put it on Facebook I wasn’t expecting the reaction that I got with the amount of innuendos and other implications people were commenting.’ In case you were wondering, the double banana tasted no different to an ordinary one, according to children Beatrice, nine, and Felix, six. ‘I thought my days...
