Victim of A605 collision named

The family of a man who died in a road traffic collision on the A605, Barnwell, have released a tribute to him.

 

Finbar Billings, aged 19, from Benefield, sadly died following a single-vehicle collision in his black Ford KA on Friday, March 10, at about 5.15pm.

 

Now his family have released the following tribute to him via Northamptonshire Police:

 

“Our Winnie Woo, it is with the heaviest of hearts we are writing this. 

 

“Our Finbar sadly passed away after a collision on Friday, March 10.

 

“We are obviously very heartbroken and are lost without him. 

 

“Finbar was a ‘wild child’ as they say. He always knew how to make it better, he had a heart of gold and would always be there to offer a helping hand in a time of need. A genuine man who was taken from us too soon! 

 

“As a grieving family we ask you not to go to the scene and lay flowers as it’s a route we travel often and don’t not wish to have reminders of this tragic event.

 

“We also ask you respect our privacy and give us the time to grieve. 

 

“Thank you for your understanding and support, it’s very comforting.”

 

Officers would still like to hear from anyone who may have witnessed the incident or who may have CCTV or dash cam footage of the collision.
