Their little prince is a miracle, out of the woods thanks to the first aid gestures made by his father, then to the professionalism of the specialists at the Necker hospital (Paris 15th).
Less than 24 hours after a scooter violently struck Ibrahim in a pedestrian lane in Vitry-sur-Seine, Fatima and Mohamed were able to bring their 7-year-old son home on Monday afternoon.

"It happened in a road closed to vehicles," repeats the father surrounded by his sleepless night the day after the terrible shock.
I do not understand that a scooter could have passed… ”

It is a little after 8:30 p.m. this Sunday, when the family enters the Joliot-Curie passage.
Ibrahim and his older sister take advantage of the dog's walk to admire the graffiti on the walls.
Their parents are "just two meters from them".
In a recess, the cadet finds a figure drawn all in muscles.
He laughs and says to his oldest child: "That's daddy!"

And now a large displacement scooter roars.
“I have the blinding light from the lighthouse coming on us,” describes Mohamed.
I shouted
stop, stop
! ”
The big girl immediately leans against the wall.
But the reflex of a 12-year-old tween is not that of a child.
Ibrahim comes out of the recess, no doubt to see where the "deafening" noise is coming from.
The scooter hits him head-on and throws him several meters.
The pilot stops much further.
"The driver raised his visor, he looked at me, and he disappeared"
“I let go of the dog who started running in his direction, me too despite my recent cruciate ligament operation,” says the dad.
The driver lifted his visor, looked at me, and he disappeared. "

Luckily, the young victim does not suffer from any fractures.
Just dermabrasions due to friction on the ground after the fall.
His wound on the side of his forehead and in the scalp caused numerous stitches, but the edema did not cause any internal sequelae.
Too bad for the three teeth lost in the accident.
Support rally this Tuesday evening
"It's a miracle," recount the parents on Monday, still traumatized by "the horrible noise" and "all the blood of Ibrahim".
They hope that their call for witnesses, broadcast on social networks, will bear fruit to enlighten the investigators of the Vitry police station.
"We also want the pedestrian streets to be truly pedestrian," implored Mohamed, a town hall employee at the roads.
Several parents from the Jean-Moulin school where Ibrahim is educated intend to relay this request loud and clear this Tuesday evening, on the occasion of a march that will leave at 7 p.m. from school to the scene of the tragedy and then the city Hall.
"Me, I no longer let my children leave this apartment", asserts Fatima from the top of her tower of the Robespierre slab.
As for Olex, the Malinois adopted by the family two months ago, he was entrusted to an association: “We can no longer keep him, regrets Mohamed.
The idea of having to take it out has become unbearable to us… ”
