An autistic teenager who plummeted from a 50ft bridge onto rocks and broke his spine in four places has been told he will never walk again.

Joshua Davies’ family believe he was running away from a gang in Pontypridd when he slipped and fell on to the rocky riverbed, breaking his arms, legs, feet and spine.
