Liverpool FC fan and friend killed by speeding BMW driver

A young Liverpool FC fan and his friend were killed by a BMW driver who was travelling at nearly double the speed limit.

Jack Hart was driving at 57mph in a 30mph zone when he hit Stephen Duffield, 10, and Mason Deakin, 11, who had entered the road on a bike. The 32-year-old drove at "excessive speed" through Hull city centre at rush hour on October 19, 2020, ignoring bus lane rules and undertaking other drivers.

After the crash, Hart removed the dashcam from his car and the footage was never recovered. Both boys were taken to hospital but despite the best efforts of medical professionals, Stephen died that evening and Mason died two weeks later.
