A third teenager who was killed in a horrific crash near Exeter Racecourse earlier this month has been named.

Mr Weston's family have paid tribute to him.

"Oliver was a loving and very loved son, brother and cousin, our family have been left heartbroken following his death," they said.

“Oliver had a passion for living his life and working hard. His spare time was spent with his motorbikes which were a huge part of his life, he also enjoyed fishing and could name hundreds of fish.

“Oliver was very popular amongst his peers and he bought a lot of joy, energy and laughter to his friends and family. Oliver will be missed by all who knew him and will forever remain in our hearts.”

Police were called at around 1.20am to a collision involving a silver Peugeot 107 near Haldon Hill. They are appealing for information from anyone who witnessed the collision or anyone with relevant dashcam footage which may help with enquiries.
