Family pay tribute to teenager

-

A 14-YEAR-OLD boy was killed in a motorway collision with a BMW was “fun, outgoing and friendly”, his family has said.

Samuel Berkley was found unconsciou­s on the hard shoulder of the M67 eastbound at junction 3, Hyde, Greater Manchester, on Friday afternoon.

A talented footballer, he was taken to hospital but died early yesterday from what police called “unsurvivab­le” injuries.

The teenager, who lived at home with his parents and 20-year-old sister, had recently become an uncle to his 21-year-old brother’s daughter.

Greater Manchester Police said in a statement: “His family said they are completely heartbroke­n by their loss and although nothing will ever replace losing Sam they hope everyone remembers him for the fun, outgoing and friendly boy he will always be.”
