'Loving and selfless' 19-year-old dad killed in cycling accident

Tributes have been pouring in for an "amazing" and "loving" young father killed in a cycling accident. Reece Thomas Thompson, 19, from Bangor has been described as a keen sportsman, having represented several local football clubs such as Llandudno FC and Bethesda Athletic. He also played rugby for the North Wales regional youth side, RGC.

He leaves behind an 18-month-old son called Grayson, as well as mum Caryl, dad Dewi, sister Aly and two sets of grandparents, North Wales Live reports. His father Dewi said: "He was an amazing, loving and selfless human being. I only wish that I was the same as him when I was younger, he was amazing. We are overwhelmed by the support shown by all."
