A 78-year-old man who died after a crash involving two cars has been described as a "loving family man".

Frantz Lauritzen, from Lathbury, Milton Keynes, was a pedestrian hit by one of the cars on the B526 Northampton Road near Newport Pagnell, Buckinghamshire, on 19 November.

His family said he had been walking into town to meet a friend for dinner.

They added: "He was a loving family man, who loved to spend time with his family and friends both in the UK and abroad."

The tribute continued: "Frantz's death leaves his two children, his grandchildren and his partner with so many unanswered questions. He will be greatly missed."

A 67-year-old man, from Wootton, Bedfordshire, who was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving and driving while over the legal alcohol limit, has been released on bail.

Police have appealed for witnesses to get in touch.
