Brit tourist in horror quad bike crash on Zante

By Zeenia Naqvee

AN UNLUCKY Welsh tourist that was knocked off of a quad bike after a speedy car struck her face was left with gruesome injuries.

Holly Thomas, 21, from South Wales, was enjoying a trip to Greek island paradise with her family before a ‘traumatising’ incident.

The family-of-four jetted off to Zante from Bristol Airport on June 5 for a week in the sun, before splashing out €250 on two quad bikes.

On day 3 of their trip they opted to use the bikes to explore one of the island’s most famed attractions – the stunning Blue Caves.

Pontypool native Holly, claims a car travelling at 50mph hit the back of her quad bike on the way back, sending her flying through the air.

Graphic photos show Holly’s face covered in scrapes and bruises, and a large swollen ‘blood pool’ on the back of her right leg, also said to be caused by the crash.

The Fine Enforcement Officer was rushed to a local hospital where she underwent a brain scan and had to have stitches on her head.

Holly was tragically chained to her room in the all-inclusive hotel for the rest of the trip to recover.

She flew back to Britain on June 12 and is still recovering at home.

Doctors have warned that her injuries could take months to heal and she vows never to use a quad bike ever again.
