Liam Taylor was killed in a crash in Middlesbrough

A cyclist killed in a collision with a car was "much loved", his family has said.

Liam Taylor, 30, died after the collision between his bike and a green Audi at 17:00 GMT in Middlesbrough on Monday.

Cleveland Police is appealing for information about the crash near the Fire Station on Park Vale Road.

A 35-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving.

He has been released on bail pending further inquiries, a force spokeswoman said.

In a statement released through force, Mr Taylor's family said: "Liam was a much-loved son, brother and uncle who sadly lost his life too soon.

"He will be missed by everyone who knew him."
