Tributes have been paid to a father who died in a four-vehicle crash.

Durham Police was called to the crash, which involved a motorbike and a pedestrian, on Spring Road, Murton, in County Durham on Sunday evening.

Andrew Robson, 29, was pronounced dead at the scene. A 17-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving.

Andrew's partner, Danielle, said he was the "best thing that ever happened" to her and their children.

"You weren’t just my best friend, soulmate, and partner, but you were also a loving son, dad, brother, and grandson," Danielle said, in a statement shared by Durham Police.

She added: "Everyone who had you in their lives will miss you."

Witness appeal

The pedestrian involved in the collision received minor injuries, police said.

Durham Police officers said they were looking for anyone who witnessed the crash, or might have dashcam footage.

The 17-year-old has since been released under investigation.
