Toddler lucky to be alive after shooting

A TWO-YEAR-OLD boy who was shot in the head survived after the bullet missed an artery by just 1mm, his family have revealed.

The toddler was one of four people, including his mother, who were shot in Harlesden, north-west London on June 3. The attacker then fled the scene on a motorbike.

Doctors told the two-year-old’s family that the bullet missed a crucial artery, which would have resulted in a fatal injury if damaged, by just 1mm.
