Groom, 54, killed after crashing his e-scooter into open car door just 48 hours before his wedding

A GROOM-to-be has sadly been killed after crashing his e-scooter into an open car door a mere two days before his wedding. Scott Catton, 54, was rushed to hospital following the horror crash but tragically died at Nottingham's Queen's Medical Centre on Saturday. 4 4 Scott was riding his e-scooter down a street in Top Valley, Nottingham, when he crashed into an opening car door. He was left fatally injured by the crash and sadly passed away in hospital days later despite the best efforts of medics. The collision occurred on Thursday 5, just two days before Scott was due to marry his fiancee Debbie. The couple had planned to leave to Majorca today for their honeymoon. Instead of celebrating his wedding Scott's distraught family are now fundraising to cover funeral expenses. He is survived by his young son who is just 13. Scott's brother in law, Phillip Bates, has set up a GoFundMe which will be used to help cover funeral costs. The fundraiser will also be used to set up a trust for Scott's son. Scott's brother in law described him as the "life and soul of the party." A statement from Scott's devastated family reads: "Today we had to say goodbye to a much loved friend, partner, father, uncle and brother. Tributes pour in for Brit stag do groom who collapsed & died in Benidorm as fiancee says 'I can't believe this is real' "Scott had a traffic accident from which he didn't recover. "I am trying to raise funds to give him the send off that he deserves any remaining funds will be put into trust for his 13 year old son he leaves behind. " Funeral arrangements will be posted in due course. "He was due to marry his partner on Monday 9th June. We are all in deep shock please find it in your hearts to help." 4 4 So far nearly £5,900 has been raised towards a target of £7,500. Scott, a retired EON adviser, was described by family as a keen boxing and cricket fan. His brother in law, Phillip, 56, said: "It's horrendous. It's never a good time, but this is the worst time though. "He was the life and soul of the party, everyone loved him. "He was a cheeky chap. He was massively into his sports and we both played football. "He played for local teams, and played at veterans level. He loved his cricket and boxing. "He went to Wembley to watch England and he recently went to watch the Eubank vs Benn fight. He was Nottingham Forest mad too." Nottingham Police are probing the incident.
