A three-year-old boy was injured after a steel gate fell on him at his Princes Town home last Thursday.

Police said around 4 pm, the child was at his Hope Road home with his 68-year-old grandmother when he rushed outside to meet his father.

As the child attempted to open the front gate, it reportedly derailed and fell on him, pinning him underneath.
