Teenage boys who tragically died in Morpeth car crash remembered as best friends who were like 'brothers'

The heartbroken families of two teenagers who tragically died after a crash in Morpeth have paid tribute to their beloved boys.

Riley Hedley, 17, and Mikey Easton, 16, have been remembered as "inseparable" friends who were so close they "could have been brothers" after growing up together.

The pair sadly died following a crash on the A196 near Coopies Way last weekend. Emergency services were called shortly after 12.40am on Sunday, March 12 but despite their best efforts, along with help from members of the public, Riley and Mikey sadly passed away.
