Floral tributes have been left at the scene of a fatal crash which killed two people and severely injured three.

One of the messages read: "Sleep tight little Roy. I will miss you, Daisy will miss you. All our love," and was accompanied by a paw print.

Detectives are appealing for information after being called to the A268 Rye Road, near Hawkhurst, at 9.30pm yesterday, where a car had crashed into a wall and turned on its side.

The smash happened near the junction with Foxhole Lane and involved a red Volvo hatchback car which was travelling from Hawkhurst towards Sandhurst when it crashed into a wall.

Officers, as well as firefighters and paramedics attended.

Two people were confirmed dead at the scene, with three people taken to hospital.

One of those, believed to be a 16-year-old girl from East Sussex, was taken to London's Kings College with life-threatening injuries.

Alongside the bunches of flowers and notes was a toy tractor.

The road was closed while officers attended the scene but reopened at 3.40am.

Anyone who witnessed the crash or saw the Volvo just beforehand, and has not yet spoken to police, is asked to call the Serious Collision Investigation Unit on 01622 798538 or email sciu.td@kent.pnn.police.uk quoting reference DK/BG/214/17.
