The family of an 11-year-old boy from London who died in a car crash on the A303 has released a statement as a tribute to their son and brother.
The boy named Charles, whose surname has not been released, died after his family’s black BMW crashed into a lorry parked in a layby near the Countess Roundabout at approximately 7.30pm on Saturday, July 8.
Two other members of the family also sustained serious injuries during the crash and were treated at Southampton General Hospital.
The joint statement from the family said: “As the youngest of three wonderful siblings, Charles was the golden-haired centre of our family. We will miss his life-loving and caring nature every day. It is impossible to imagine the future without him.
“Charles was deeply loved by his family, his friends and our dog Lettice, who magically survived the deeply tragic accident.
“He will be missed and remembered forever. Rest in peace, my darling."
