The family of Dylan have paid tribute to him.

They said: “Words won’t ever be able to express the grief and sadness we feel for the loss of our amazing son and brother.

“He was kind with a heart of gold. He was the type of person that was always there to help everyone before himself. Dylan was always smiling. A huge hole is left in our lives without him being here.

“He was popular with many and will not only be terribly missed by his family and friends, but he will be missed by his community.

“We would like to thank the emergency services and the two members of public that were the first people at the scene to help Dylan. We will be forever grateful.”

Officers continue to make enquiries to establish the circumstances of the collision.

Anyone with any relevant information or dash-cam footage which may assist the investigation is asked to contact police via their website or by calling 101 quoting log 673 of 8/7/24.
