Tributes paid to 'kind and thoughtful' man after death in Ranby crash
Family members have paid tribute to a ‘much-loved’ dad following his death in a collision.
Emergency services were called to the A620 Straight Mile, close to HMP Ranby, at 7.56am on December 1.
A pedestrian, who can now be named as 42-year-old Phillip Tetley, had suffered serious injuries after a collision with a car.
Despite the best efforts of members of the public who assisted and first responders, he was pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver of the car stopped and gave an account to officers.
Mr Tetley’s loved ones have released a tribute to him through the family liaison officers who have been supporting them.
It read: “Phil was a much-loved husband, son and father to four and stepfather to three.
"He was the kindest and most thoughtful man and friend to many.”
DSJo Eaton, of Nottinghamshire Police’s serious collision investigation unit, said: “Our thoughts are with Mr Tetley’s family, friends and loved ones following this tragic incident.
“His family have now asked for privacy at this extremely difficult time and specially-trained officers will continue to support them.
“I’m grateful to those members of the public who assisted at the scene and have provided information to support our investigation.”
