A 14 year-old boy who died in a crash in Swindon has been described as a "beautiful, golden son - who could light up the room with his presence."
Harry Parker died following a collision with a car outside a school on Akers Way on Friday.
His father Adam has paid tribute to him.
A woman's since been questioned on suspicion of causing serious injury by dangerous driving.
In a moving tribute, posted to his Facebook page, Adam writes: “I have been really struggling to write this, but I need to.
"This is something no parent should ever have to say.
"Our beautiful golden son Harry Parker was involved in a horrendous car incident along the horrible road Akers Way.
"Unfortunately, he lost his life far too soon. Harry will be missed by lots but no more than us, his family.
"So please at this time can we remember and honour him with lots of photos and any music you know he likes on his page.
"Harry was a cheeky chap that could light up the room with just his presence. He had the biggest heart and loved to make people laugh.
"We are very comforted by all the support from everyone. We will be doing something to make the road safer but please bear with us at this time.”
