French child, who was six years old at the time of the incident in 2019, suffered life-changing injuries

A boy who was thrown from the 10th floor of Tate Modern in London six years ago can now run and swim limited distances, his family has revealed.

The unnamed French boy, who his parents call their “little knight”, suffered life-changing injuries in the attack in August 2019. Jonty Bravery is serving a minimum 15-year jail term for his attempt to murder the boy.

As a six-year-old on holiday with his parents, the boy survived the 30-metre fall, but suffered severe injuries including bleeding on the brain and broken bones. It had been feared he would be reliant on a wheelchair for the rest of his life.

But in a new upbeat progress report on his recovery, his family detailed how much the 12-year-old can now move unaided.
