Brit businessman Paul Tustain died in front of daughter in horror van smash
A British millionaire who tragically died in front of his horrified daughter following a crash on holiday has been pictured for the first time.
Businessman Paul Gerard Tustain, from London, has been named as the victim following the incident in Spain. The 62-year-old motorcyclist collided head on with a van on a road near the northern Spanish town of Pamplona.
A spokesman for the Navarra Foral Police said: 'The dead man's daughter saw he had strayed onto the wrong side of the road and tried to alert him with hand signals but it was too late.
'He smashed head-on into a van that couldn't do anything to avoid the collision. A post mortem will show whether he might have suffered a health problem that could have caused him to go onto the wrong side of the road.
'Otherwise it's likely to have been a fatal distraction. The force of the impact was brutal.'

Friends and family have not heard from Denis since Monday A British tourist has vanished from his Airbnb while on holiday. Denis Kopanev was last seen leaving his accommodation on Monday, June 9. CCTV cameras filmed him leaving the property wearing beige jacket and trousers, a dark baseball cap, and a white shirt. Kopanev, who has Russian heritage and British citizenship, was staying at a condominium in the neighbourhood of Gávea in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Friends and family members have not heard from him since Monday. Kopanev, a financial analyst in London, was supposed to travel to São Paulo the following day to meet an American friend. They were then going to travel together to Fernando de Noronha, a volcanic archipelago about 215 miles off Brazil's north-eastern coast. The last location on his phone was at the Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon near his accommodation in Rio. The 33-year-old never checked out of the property and his passport and belongings were left in the room. His disappearance was registered at the police station on Wednesday. According to Kopanev's best friend Benone Moura, he loved Brazil and visited the country often, including as recently as six months ago.

More info Get the latest Wales Online breaking news on WhatsApp British rapper Yung Filly has faced additional charges over allegations he sexually assaulted a woman while on tour in Australia. The internet personality, real name Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos, appeared before Perth District Court on Friday. In March, he pleaded not guilty to three counts of assault occasioning bodily harm, one of strangulation and four counts of sexual penetration without consent. Court documents filed on Friday revealed he faced two new counts of sexual penetration without consent. No plea has been entered for the two new charges. His case was listed for a 10-day trial starting on July 20 2026. The online star has been on bail since October 2024 after allegedly sexually assaulting a woman aged in her 20s in his hotel room after he performed at a venue in Hillarys, a coastal suburb of Perth, the previous month. During his initial court hearing in October, Barrientos was granted bail with strict conditions and a personal undertaking of 100,000 Australian dollars (£52,000), alongside a surety of the same amount, the PA news agency understands. Court documents revealed Barrientos pleaded guilty to a reckless driving charge on December 5. The social media star was clocked driving at more than 96mph on the Roe Highway near the Perth suburb of High Wycombe on November 17. Barrientos has appeared on several BBC shows and is known for collaborating with the YouTube collective Beta Squad. The rapper, who was on tour in Australia, has appeared for England on Soccer Aid and The Great Celebrity Bake Off for Stand Up To Cancer on Channel 4. Among his other shows, he hosted BBC series Hot Property and Munya And Filly Get Chilly with comedian Munya Chawawa, a spin-off show of Freeze The Fear With Wim Hof. In 2021, he won best media personality at the Mobo Awards alongside fellow online personality Chunkz, real name Amin Mohamed.
