Pitsea motorbike crash victim, 19, was 'popular and hardworking'

Marley Villena Sutton died at the scene in Pitsea

A woman has paid tribute to her "hardworking" 19-year-old son who died when his motorbike crashed in Essex.

Emergency services were called at about 22:40 BST on 28 August to what was believed to be a single-vehicle collision in High Road, Pitsea.

Marley Villena Sutton, from Basildon, died at the scene.

"Marley was a polite, hardworking and extremely popular young man, who has been taken too soon," said Kelly Sutton.

"Our hearts are broken - and we will miss our handsome boy every day."

Essex Police does not believe any other drivers were involved but appealed for anyone with information to come forward.

Piles of floral tributes were laid in the days after Mr Sutton's death
