Floral tributes left at scene of tragic crash which killed boy, 16, and man, 40
Floral tributes have been laid at the roadside where a 16-year-old boy and 40-year-old man were tragically killed on Saturday. Flowers, cards and letters paying respects to the victims can be seen on Tetney Lock Road today (Monday), following the incident[1] on Saturday afternoon. Emergency services[2], including water rescue crews, attended after a blue Mercedes 300 left the road and became submerged in water.
But sadly, the man and boy were both pronounced dead at the scene. A spokesperson for Lincolnshire Police[3] said: “We are now appealing for anyone who may have information to come forward. We are particularly keen to hear from anyone who may have seen the vehicle driving prior to the incident and captured it on dashcam or has footage of the collision itself.
“Please check footage from the Laceby crossroads at Laceby, Grimsby, and the surrounding roads leading to the Tetney Lock Road area between 12:30pm and 1.33pm yesterday.
At this stage it is not believed there were any other vehicles involved but we are keeping an open mind as the investigation progresses.”
