Family's heartfelt tribute to tragic Sunderland motorcyclist Anthony 'Buster' Kirtley after Easter Monday crash

A 32-year-old motorcyclist who tragically died in a Sunderland crash on Easter Monday has been named as Anthony Kirtley.

Anthony, who was known to many as 'Buster', was riding an off-road motorcycle which was involved in a collision with a Suzuki Swift car at the crossroad junction of St Luke’s Terrace, East Moor Road and Midmoor Road in Pallion. Emergency services were called to the scene at around 9.35pm and Anthony was taken to hospital but sadly died from his injuries three days later.

Now his heartbroken family has paid tribute to the much-loved young man, saying he will leave “a huge hole in everyone’s hearts”.
