Tenby: A tragic accident has left a family heartbroken. Little Sophia Kelemen, just six months old, was killed when her pram was struck by a car in a multi-storey car park. It happened on January 2, and she was airlifted to a hospital in Cardiff but sadly passed away the next day.
Sophia was on holiday with her family, enjoying time together when the unthinkable happened. Her aunt, Adriana, shared how Sophia was a joyful baby who had just celebrated her first Christmas. They were all having a great time until that fateful day.
Adriana explained that they were wrapping up their trip and had just gone to the supermarket. The accident occurred in the car park, and the impact was devastating. Sophia suffered severe injuries, including a brain bleed, and despite the doctors’ efforts, she couldn’t survive.
The family is now trying to cope with their loss while also caring for Sophia’s older brother, who witnessed the incident. They’ve set up fundraising efforts to help with funeral costs and to bring Sophia back to Romania for burial, honoring their roots.
Adriana described Sophia as a bubbly and playful baby who was always smiling. It’s heartbreaking to think they won’t get to see her grow up or make more memories together. The family is grieving deeply, and they’re grateful for the support they’ve received.
In the wake of this tragedy, a GoFundMe page has been created to help with expenses. Adriana expressed her disbelief at having to write such a post, highlighting the suddenness of the tragedy. The family is trying to navigate this unimaginable situation while holding onto the love they have for Sophia.
Meanwhile, the driver involved, Flaviu Naghi, has been charged with causing death by dangerous driving and other offenses. The police are continuing their investigation into the incident, and the family is left to mourn their precious little girl.
