A man who died when his motorbike was involved in a crash with a car has been named as Jason Randall.

Father-of-three Mr Randall, of Mary Last Close, Snodland, had been riding his KTM bike towards the centre of the town along Malling Road when he was involved in a collision with a blue Vauxhall Corsa.

Friends and family have left floral tributes at the scene of the accident.

The driver of the car was taken to hospital to be checked over and was later discharged.

The road was closed for around five hours while emergency services dealt with the incident. The air ambulance also landed nearby.

A well known figure in Snodland, Mr Randall grew up in the town, went to Holmesdale School and later worked as a farm worker. Aged in his 30s, he was well known for his love of motorbikes.

A statement from his wife released by police said: "On Saturday July 14, my husband, Jason Randall, was sadly taken from me.

"Jason was a much loved husband and father of three and will be sorely missed by all of his family and friends.

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank the emergency services, air ambulance crew and special thanks to the lady who arrived on scene to help before the emergency services arrived. I would also like to thank friends and family for their continued support."

Police would like to hear from anyone who may have witnessed the collision or may have any information which could help. If you can help, please call the Serious Collision Investigation Unit appeal line on 01622 798538.
