Police are keen to trace two more witnesses to a collision that killed a young man from North Devon.
It happened on Wednesday May 26, when a blue Ford Fiesta with three people inside, crashed into a wall on Budleigh Hill, at around 10pm.
The front seat passenger, who was 18, died at the scene.
Another 18-year-old man from Cornwall suffered serious injuries. He was treated at hospital and has since been discharged.
A 17-year-old boy from Devon suffered minor injuries.
“We are continuing to investigate the circumstances behind the collision and I’d like to thank witnesses who have come forward to help with our enquiries.
“We are looking to trace two men who were at the scene and are believed to have seen what happened, but left before officers arrived. One of them was believed to have been wearing a cream coloured top.
“We’d also like to hear from anyone who was in the Budleigh Hill area at the time and has dash cam or mobile phone footage.”
