A teenage girl who was injured in a collision in Penkridge has sadly died from her injuries.
The 17-year-old girl was injured following a collision on Cannock Road on Saturday 25 May.
She was taken to hospital for treatment. Tragically, she died as a result of her injuries last night (Tuesday 28 May).
Her family are being supported by specialist officers at this difficult time and we ask that their privacy is respected.
Two teenage boys, who also died in the collision, have been named as Dafydd Hûw Craven-Jones, 18, of Tanyfron, Wrexham, and Morgan Jones, 17, of Coedpoeth, Wrexham.
We are continuing to investigate the circumstances of the collision. The teenagers were travelling on the Cannock Road, Penkridge, in a Ford Ka. We were called just before midnight to reports of a collision and we arrived a short time later.
A 17-year-old girl is still in hospital in a stable condition.
Anyone who may have seen the collision, or the vehicle prior to the collision, can email [email protected], call 101 quoting incident number 813 of 25 May, or message us using Live Chat on our website.
