The family of a man who died following a road traffic collision near Sherfield-on-Loddon has paid tribute to him.
Shortly after 12.30pm on Wednesday 15 February, we were called to a report of a road traffic collision on the A33 at Turgis Green.
It was reported a yellow MAN TGE 3 van left the southbound carriageway and collided with a silver Volkswagen Passat that was parked on the forecourt of a petrol station.
Despite the best efforts of the emergency services, the driver of the MAN TGE 3 was pronounced dead at the scene. No other people were injured.
We are now in a position to confirm the man who died was 53-year-old Richard Evans from Reading, Berkshire.
His family have paid the following tribute to him: "We have lost a loving son, brother, devoted father to his three children and grandad to Roman. We are all deeply shocked by his sudden passing.
"We would like to thank all the emergency services that attended the scene of this tragic accident."
We are investigating the circumstances that led to this collision and are keen to hear from anyone who was in the area at the time and saw what happened.
