Tangi for child killed in tractor accident

A tangi was held at the weekend for the four-year-old girl who died in the tractor tragedy on a farm near Ruatoria last Wednesday.

The little girl was farewelled in a service at Hiruharama Marae, south of Ruatoria.

The child's name was withheld at the request of the family, police said.

Police carried out an examination at the scene of the accident last week.

"The inquiry into the circumstances of the tragedy is ongoing," police said.
