A three-year-old boy has died after an incident at a farm in Carmarthenshire.

Huw George said the community would try to help the family in any way they could

Local minister and county councillor Huw George said the community had woken up under "yet another cloud".

"One strong point of this community is that it's strong, it's close," he said.

"People will be there and sense when help is needed and if people ask for help, they will get it, because how do you begin to explain and begin to say something which means anything at a time like this."

Carwyn James said people were struggling to come to terms with the sad news
