Cardiff crash victim's mum begged rioters to stop as son lay dying in street

The mum of a 15-year-old boy who was tragically killed alongside his friend in a horror crash pleaded with rioters to stop as her son lay dying on the road. Best friends Kyrees Sullivan, 15, and Harvey Evans, 16, both tragically died in the smash, which reportedly occurred while they were riding electric bikes.

Hundreds gathered at the scene of the collision in Cardiff shortly after 6pm yesterday, with trouble soon breaking out amongst the crowd. The unrest quickly escalated into a full blown riot, with several vehicles set on fire, properties damaged and fireworks thrown at police.

In an emotional post to Facebook, Kyree's mum begged rioters to stop and let her son be taken to hospital. As reported by the Mirror, Belinda Sullivan wrote: "My son is still laying on the floor due to this riot. I’m sat at home heartbroken.
