Lincoln crash: Man arrested on suspicion of drink-driving after two teens killed in horror collision

Two teenagers have been killed in a horror crash involving a suspected drink-driver.

A 26-year-old man was arrested after two cars collided on the Lincoln bypass at around 12.50am on Saturday.

The occupants of a white Citroen C3, a man and a woman aged 19, were pronounced dead at the scene following the collision with a blue Ford Mondeo estate.

The driver of the Mondeo was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving, providing a positive breath test and leaving the scene of a collision.

A Lincolnshire Police spokesman said: "We have traced the immediate family of the victims and broken this desperately sad news to them.

"Anyone who was on the bypass between the Carholme and Skellingthorpe roundabouts between about 12.30am and 12.50am and saw either the white Citroen C3 or the blue Mondeo estate before the collision, or saw the collision itself, is asked to contact police on 101."
