Teenage crash victim is named

1:37pm Wed 4th Jun 08:: written by Alastair Beach


The teenager killed in a car crash in Furze Platt on Sunday has been named as 19-year-old Luke Edgington.

The young tree surgeon was killed after his white Peugeot was in collision with a Volkswagen Golf in Furze Platt Road, near the junction with Abell Gardens, at about 1.30am.

A string of bouquets line the spot where the former Furze Platt Senior School pupil died and friends placed unopened cans of lager alongside flowers and messages written in memory of the teenager.

You can post a tribute message in an online guest book here.

A funeral will take place on Tuesday, June 10 at All Saints' Church in Bisham. Luke's parents Colin and Shirley have invited mourners back to Beacon Farm Cottage in Beacon Lane, Marlow, after the service.

Police have asked anyone with information about Sunday's crash, in which the passenger in the second vehicle suffered minor injuries and received treatment at Wexham Park Hospital, to contact PC Mark Dunne on 08458 505 505, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

See this week's Advertiser to read a tribute from Luke's grieving relatives.
