"We are beyond lost without him. He was a friend to so many and a man who will be missed beyond comparison." Police said the second pedestrian, a woman in her 60s, is in a serious but stable condition in hospital. Last week the family of Mr Wright described him as a "devoted husband and loving father".Lancashire Police said the three suspects, a 53-year-old man from Whittle-le-Woods, a 57-year-old man from Middlewich and a 46-year-old man from Congleton, have since been released under investigation. Sgt Joe Ghigi, from the force's roads policing unit, said: "Our thoughts remain with the families of David and Lyndon, and with the woman recovering in hospital.
