- Published
A funeral has been held for the last of four young men who died when their car hit a house and caught fire.
Jordan Rawlings was with Ryan Nelson, Corey Owen and Matthew Parke when they crashed on the A4 in Derry Hill, near Chippenham, on 16 August.
The 20-year-old's cortege drove through his hometown of Calne in Wiltshire to allow people to pay their respects.
In tribute, his family said he had "a cheeky smile, a wicked sense of humour and a contagious laugh".
The funeral procession began at 10:00 BST, travelling along Oxford Road, before heading through the town centre.
Insp James Brain of Wiltshire Police said: "This week's funeral marks the final stage of a very difficult and emotional time for the families of the four victims and the wider community in Calne.
"The tragic collision has been made more difficult because of the government's current Covid restrictions and I would like to take this opportunity to thank the people of Calne for the respectful, but safe way, they have paid their final respects to these four young men.
Police are still investigating the cause of the crash.
