Cops rushed to Chalkwell Park at around 12.30am on June 13 following reports a group of people had stolen an “articulated loading vehicle”.
Officers discovered Tallulah with critical injuries following an incident with the vehicle – and she was urgently rushed to hospital.

Issuing a touching tribute, Tallulah’s heartbroken family hailed the teenager as a “hardworking and outgoing” young girl.
They wrote: “Tallulah was not only a daughter to me, she was the bestest friend.
“She was an amazing sister, granddaughter, niece and cousin and was loved by all who knew her.
“She was a beautiful hardworking, fun & outgoing young girl.
“Tallulah always lived her best life, had a beautiful soul and life will never be the same without her.
“Losing Tallulah has left a whole in many hearts that could never be filled but we will forever be grateful for the memories we have made with her.
“We will miss her eternally. We would like to thank the emergency services who cared for Tallulah when she needed it the most.”
