A security camera in China has recorded the moment a boy was hit in the head with a glass bottle which flew up from the road when it was run over by a vehicle.

In the clip, which was filmed in in Guizhou Province on July 12, the minibus runs over the empty bottle which then flies fast through the air for about five metres to the pavement where it hits the boy on the top of the head.

Fortunately, the boy was not seriously hurt in the freak accident and was treated for minor injuries.
