Elliott Aaron Lemm, 20, from South Kirby, died in a collision on the B6128 Wakefield Road, Horbury.

The police’s Major Collision and Enquiry Team are continuing to investigate the circumstances of a collision.

In a statement, Elliott’s family said: “Elliott was gorgeous and vibrant and always the life and soul of any party.

“Words cannot express the loss and grief the whole family are feeling at this time.

“The family want to request that their privacy is respected at this difficult time.”

Officers are continuing to appeal for witnesses to the collision which took place at about 1.19am on Saturday, November 13.
