The eight-year-old child was carried off on a makeshift stretcher made from 'cardboard' which was 'full of blood from somebody else'.
"They should not allow a child to be taken out on a cardboard poster that's full of blood from somebody else. That's not good enough", Mr Roussos added.Police chiefs were forced to apologise, the fire service was embarrassed by their response and the ambulance service was criticised for the delay in treating victims.
Paul Reid, a member of the public who had been selling posters, was at Saffie-Rose's side for 31 minutes, urging her to"stay with me" as he carried her out on a makeshift stretcher. Speaking to Sky News he said:"It felt like an eternity, like a life-time for the emergency services to arrive. I was thinking any minute now they're all going to come in there and kick me out, but it just didn't happen like that.
