Tributes have been paid to a 21-year-old man killed in a horror smash which left five other people in hospital after a weekend of bloodshed on London’s roads. A 12-year-old boy was knocked down by a Royal Mail truck in Holborn, and a 28-year-old woman suffered “life-changing” head injuries after being hit by a bus near the British Museum in Bloomsbury. A 24-year-old motorcycle courier also died after being thrown from his bike following a collision with a minicab in Maida Vale.
Saif Ali, 21, from Walthamstow, was at the wheel of his BMW when it collided with a Vauxhall Astra on the North Circular in Barking at 10.30pm on Saturday. He was pronounced dead at the scene. The 19-year old Astra driver and four teenage passengers in his car were taken to hospital.
