Young man dies after car hits tree in Sutton Bonington

A 21-year-old man who died after his car hit a tree has been named as Callum Payne.

Nottinghamshire Police says Mr Payne lost control of a Nissan Qashqai at around 11.20pm on Friday, May 14.

The vehicle crashed into a tree in Park Lane in Sutton Bonington.

Mr Payne, who lived in Loughborough, was pronounced dead at the scene.

A front seat passenger, aged 20, was also hurt in the crash but his injuries are not life-threatening.

Mr Payne’s family say they are devastated and ask for privacy at this difficult time.

Sergeant Mark Baker, of Nottinghamshire Police's serious collision investigation unit, said: “This was a tragic loss of a young life and our thoughts are with his family.

“I am very keen to hear from anyone who either witnessed this incident or who may have been driving in the area and captured it on dash-cam footage.

“Our enquiries into the circumstances surrounding the collision are ongoing and any information, no matter how small, could assist our investigation. If you can help please don’t hesitate to get in touch.”

Anyone who witnessed the incident or has any dashcam footage is asked to call 101 and quote incident number 972 of 14 May 2021.
