A Brit dad is in hospital in Spain after he broke 26 bones when he was twice hit by a car on his way to the supermarket.

Dean Millers, 29, was left fighting for his life, in a coma and on a ventilator after he popped to the shop to get juice and biscuits for his daughters.

Partner Emily Clarke, 24, heard a huge smash, and ran out to the balcony to see Dean lying injured in the road.

The construction worker had been hit by a car while using the zebra crossing, thrown through the air, and was then run over by another vehicle - before thieves stole his wallet.

The father-of-two was airlifted to hospital for life-saving surgery to repair two broken legs, 13 rib fractures, a smashed pelvis, broken nose and arm and fractured elbow.

He also lost his bottom teeth, broke his fingers, and suffered kidney damage, and Emily was only able to recognise him from his tattoos.

He was put in an induced coma and on a ventilator - but heartbreakingly five days later Emily was forced to leave him and return to England with their kids, Ava-Rae, three and Halleé-Rae, two.

She has since flown back and forth to sign consent form for endless operations - and fears Dean could be in hospital in Spain for months.

Miss Clarke from Gorton, Manchester, said: 'All I could see was a man in the road and while I couldn't tell it was Dean, I knew it was him,.

'The hotel phone started ringing and they asked if I could come down. It was absolutely awful.

'When I first saw him after the operation I was only allowed to see him for two minutes.

'It was horrible. At that stage I was still in disbelief that it was him. And when I saw him, he was a mess. I burst into tears. I've never seen anything like it in my life.
