The family of a 74-year-old man who died after a crash in Burnley say he'll be greatly missed.

The driver of the Mercedes has suffered serious injuries - they're not thought to be life-threatening.
Mr. Boothby's family have thanked the emergency services and the witnesses that stopped to help their dad.
"We would also like to thank the police liaison officer who has given us support through this difficult time.
"Thank you for all the support from our friends and extended families.
"We are devastated as a family, and he will be greatly missed by his children and grandchildren."

"These are tragic circumstances and our thoughts and prayers are very much with Mr Boothby’s family at this difficult time.
"We are continuing to appeal for witnesses, in particularly anyone with dashboard mounted camera footage, which could assist our enquiries.
