A MOTHER has spoken of the heart-stopping moment her three-year-old son was rushed to hospital for emergency treatment after he was badly injured in a head-on crash near Romsey. Natasha West was driving with her son Anthony Hamlett-West, two daughters and fiancé back home to Hythe when the family was in a collision with a van on the A3090 at East Wellow on Tuesday evening (January 26). The 27-year-old mum said her car later exploded after her family were freed from the wreckage. But it soon became clear Anthony, 3, needed the most urgent medical attention. NHS workers at University Hospital Southampton discovered Anthony needed further tests.
