Cllr Lee said: "My heartfelt feelings go to the family and community and obviously all friends who know the family.

"This is a tragic situation with youngsters cut down in their prime, it’s beggars belief really.

"Our roads, our back lanes are not the safest roads in the world. People need to take care and I have no idea what happened here, but all I can say is my thoughts are in the family at the moment."
