People in a "close knit" community have been left shocked and traumatised after a "king and gentle" mum of-three was killed in a crash with a police car which was pursuing a separate car.
Heather Smedley died after her car collided with an unmarked police vehicle which was chasing a suspected suspected stolen car on Friday morning.
The 53-year-old was driving near to her home in Oldham, Greater Manchester, when the crash took place just two days before Christmas.
