COPS have arrested a 21-year-old man on suspicion of murder following the death of a dad-of-two in road rage attack. Stephen Walsh, 37, was driving a Lexus which collided with a gold vehicle in a residential street around 10pm on Sunday. Police say Mr Walsh failed to stop at the scene in Newstead Avenue, Mapperley, and drove around the corner to his home in Blenheim Avenue - less than a mile away. Moments later a man - believed to be the driver of the other car - turned up at his home and launched a vicious attack, subjecting him to serious head injuries. The angry motorist then left saying he would return the next day to exchange insurance details. However, Mr Walsh was found dead at around 5.55am the following day. Top cop's emotional appeal to road rage driverDetective Chief Inspector Hayley Williams said it appeared the assault was a "spontaneous incident" following the crash on the leafy residential street.

Summer means increased risk of dying in car crashes for teens
Linda Dono USA TODAY Published 12:32 p.m. UTC May 29, 2018 The unofficial start of summertime also begins what some traffic-safety experts have dubbed the 100 deadliest days of summer, especially for teens. This year, the time between Memorial Day and Labor Day spans only 98 days. But go back to the beginning of Memorial Day weekend and you'll find five passengers, ages 16 to 21, who crawled out from an overcrowded SUV that overturned at around 8:45 p.m. PT Saturday in the San Francisco suburb of Sausalito, according to the California Highway Patrol. The driver of the vehicle, Angel Negron-Clay, 18, of Stockton, Calif., also climbed out and started running, police say. A Highway Patrol airplane just happened to be in the area, and using forward-looking infrared technology, authorities found Negron-Clay hiding in the bushes beside U.S. 101. The percentage of teens who drink and drive has decreased by more than half in the past 25 years, according to the federal Centers for … [Read more...] about Summer means increased risk of dying in car crashes for teens

Dad of 21-year-old killed in horror crash says his “heart has been ripped out”
The family of a 21-year-old who died in a horror car crash have said it was like "being hit by a train" when they were told he had died. Samuel Mcneil, of Branston, was killed in a car crash in Overseal, on December 16, 2016. His family have now spoken of the nightmare of the 15 months since he was killed when he was the passenger in a car driven by Alex Smith, from Stapenhill. Smith was jailed for just under seven years for causing death by dangerous driving two weeks ago. He had lied about who was driving that night, insisting that Samuel was behind the wheel after the pair went to the pub together. Smith was over the drink-drive limit having drunk between six and 10 pints of lager and five glasses of Jägermeister and Redbull (known as a Jagerbomb), the court was told. He was speeding when his car clipped a kerb and rolled over. Samuel’s dad Davy Mcneil and step-mum Cathy Harris have now spoken to the Burton Mail about the toughest 15 months of their lives. Samuel, who … [Read more...] about Dad of 21-year-old killed in horror crash says his “heart has been ripped out”
