EXCLUSIVE: A man who died after being hit by a car on the A38 near Lichfield has been named locally as Richard Hall.

The 21-year-old was killed in the accident at 1.40am on Saturday morning at Alrewas.

The exact circumstances surrounding Mr Hall’s death have been released by authorities, but it is believed Mr Hall had visited a garage following a night out and was crossing over to his home on the opposite side of the carriageway.

“I’m going to miss you loads – you were such a good lad. It doesn’t even feel like you have gone. Going to miss you loads. All my thoughts are with your family, love you loads. One day we will meet again.”

Another member of the group added:

“Rest in peace Richard, gone far too soon.”
