The family of an 18-year-old killed in a road traffic collision have paid tribute to him.

Gerwyn Allan Osborne-Flanagan, from Cefn Hengoed, was hit by a car and killed on Hengoed Crescent, in Cefn Hengoed, on Saturday September 28.

His family released the following tribute: “Gerwyn was one in a million, irreplaceable and his mum and dad are so proud of him. All his family and friends are completely heartbroken by this tragedy and will miss him greatly. At this time the family would like time and space to grieve.”
