Tributes to 'amazing father' after crash in village

Police have confirmed the pedestrian killed on 10 June was Paul Cooper

A man who died in a crash in a Derbyshire village has been named by police as Paul Cooper.

Police were called to the A6009 Woodhouse Road, Kilburn, at about 07:30 BST on Monday after reports a vehicle had hit a pedestrian.

The 64-year-old, described by family as an "amazing father", was pronounced dead at the scene.

A 79-year-old man remains on bail after being arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving, and a police investigation into the crash continues.

Mr Cooper's family paid tribute to him in a statement, saying he had worked as the kit manager for Derby County's academy before retiring.

“As well as his love for football, Paul enjoyed all other sports – in particular darts – but his biggest love was dancing to Northern Soul music," they said.

"[He] was the much loved husband of Lorraine, as well as an amazing father and grandfather."
