The family of one of three teenagers killed when a car and a bus collided in west London have said they are "completely devastated" by his death.
Star Tomkins and Jimmy Savory, who were both 17, and 18-year-old Harley Woods, died when the car they were in hit a bus in Feltham just before midnight on 31 March.
The crash, involving an H26 service heading to Hatton Cross, happened on a narrow railway bridge on Bedfont Road - and both vehicles caught fire.
The three, who were declared dead at the scene, were named by the force on Thursday.
Harley Woods' family said in a statement they were "completely devastated" by his death and asked to be "left in peace to grieve and find a way through this".
In a tribute on a GoFundMe page that has raised more than £10,000 towards funeral costs, Star Tomkins' loved ones called her a "beloved daughter, sister, granddaughter, niece and best friend".
She was someone who had "a heart of gold" and who would "be deeply missed by many".
In a post on the fundraising page, one contributor described her as an "amazing friend".
A fourth passenger who was in the car was taken to hospital, along with two bus passengers whose injuries were not believed to be life-threatening, police said.
Other passengers were treated for injuries by paramedics at the scene.

Minneapolis mother watched as partner killed their 2-year-old daughter, then himself

Minneapolis mother watched as partner killed their 2-year-old daughter, then himself originally appeared on Bring Me The News. Trisha Prinsen witnessed the horrific moment that her boyfriend fatally shot their 2-year-old daughter and then turned the gun on himself. Prinsen, who is seeking funds to help pay for funeral expenses, says her partner was having a mental health crisis when he held them hostage before fatally shooting their 2-year-old daughter, Kinsley Prinsen, whom she described as her "beautiful angel." Her partner then "killed himself in front of me," she wrote. "I'm trying to deal with this one minute at a time, grieving the loss of my beautiful 2-year-old daughter and the loss of my significant other," Trisha wrote in the GoFundMe, which as of Wednesday morning had generated around $2,500. The murder-suicide happened Monday at a home on the 2900 block of Colfax Avenue North. The man, aged in his 50s, and Kinsley Prinsen were found dead from gunshot wounds. The man has not yet been identified. "This is an unimaginable, heartbreaking tragedy," said Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara. "Our hearts are with the child's mother as she faces an overwhelming loss, and with the officers and investigators who responded to such a devastating scene." Trisha told FOX 9 that her boyfriend believed "people were living under the house" and that he was being watched. She said he shot Kinsley as the toddler "went to hug her father." FOX 9 says Trisha did the interview to help raise awareness for mental health, adding that she wishes she had known that she could've texted 911 because "it may have helped to prevent such a horrible tragedy." Calling 911 is the most reliable way to get help, according to the FCC, but text-to-911 is an option statewide in Minnesota. Here's how you can use it, per the Minnesota Council on Disability. In the 'To' part of the text message, enter the numbers 911. In the text message, describe your location or provide an address and describe the emergency. Press send. Dispatch will ask if they can voice call you so that they can gather information more quickly and gather your exact location. If you are not able, let them know. You do not need to identify as deaf or hard of hearing. Wait for a response with instructions and respond promptly.

She Disappeared From a Navy Base — and Turned Up Dead. Family Says Military 'Showed Little Compassion'

The family of Angelina Petra Resendiz, a Navy sailor who was found dead in Virginia this week, says they were not told about her disappearance — and want someone to take accountability for her death. Angelina was last seen at her barracks in Norfolk on May 29, according to Virginia State Police. Her body was found on June 9 in an off-base wooded area in Norfolk by the Naval Criminal Investigative Service, PEOPLE previously reported. A spokesperson for NCIS previously told PEOPLE that a Navy sailor had been placed in 'pretrial confinement' in connection with Angelina's death. Related: Missing Sailor's Body Identified After She Disappeared from Barracks — and Navy Has Suspect in Custody 'Angelina was a kind and compassionate young woman who brought light into our lives,' Esmeralda Castle, Angelina's mother, said in a statement, adding that her disappearance has left 'a void in their hearts' and that they refuse to let her suffering be in vain. Castle claims that her family wasn't promptly notified of Angelina's disappearance, only learning about it informally through her daughter's staff and media coverage. 'Colleagues, friends, and even authorities knew she was missing, but the response was minimal,' Castle said in her statement. 'And after her friends filed a missing person's report when her commander would not, they showed little compassion or understanding.' Castle wants Congress to investigate Angelina's death and make sure that in the future, the Navy notifies families properly and promptly instead of relying on 'unofficial sources like the media.' 'The Navy's failures threaten all families and the integrity of our military system,' Castle said. 'Congress must reform these processes to prevent future tragedies, for the safety of all families.'Angelina's family and loved ones have started a GoFundMe to help Castle with any financial needs. 'Angie's mother hopes to search these woods surrounding the base and hopes to have a protest calling for reform of the US Military's treatment of missing women cases,' the fundraiser says. The Navy did not immediately return PEOPLE's inquiry for comment. Read the original article on People
