Abbie Wilson's family said they would "miss her so much"

A 10-year-old girl and a 66-year-old man have died after a crash on a rural East Yorkshire road on Boxing Day.

Abbie Wilson, from Bradford, was in a blue Skoda Kodiaq which collided with a black Audi near Garrowby, just before 17:00 GMT on 26 December.

Police said the 66-year-old, who was driving the Audi, died at the scene. Abbie was taken to hospital where she died a short time later.

A Humberside Police spokesperson said six other people were injured.

Paying tribute, Abbie's family said: "Abbie was such a lovable young girl. She would constantly have us looking at houses she would find on the internet, describing her dream home for when she grew up.

"We will miss her so much."

Officers are appealing for witnesses and any dashcam or CCTV footage of the incident.
