Mother watched in horror as toddler son was killed by huge TV which toppled off chest of drawers and landed on his head as he tried to find ball

A toddler was killed in front of his mother after a television toppled onto his head as he tried to fetch a ball, an inquest heard. McKenzie Birkett-Waddington, who was 22-months-old, had spotted his toy in the bottom drawer of the chest which had a heavy set on top. But as he pulled at the drawer, the chest began to shake and the TV crashed down onto him leaving him with fatal head injuries. The freak accident happened in Burnley, Lancashire, as McKenzie's mother Jade Birkett, 21, looked on in horror as she tended to her youngest son Kian who had just woken up.
