Teen killed in crash was 'our special boy', mum says

A 16-year-old who died after he was hit by a car was a "special boy who had the biggest heart", his mother has said.

Alfie Moran was struck while walking across Kingsway, in Burnage, Manchester, at about 18:40 GMT on Friday and later died from his injuries, Greater Manchester Police said.

An 18-year-old man who was arrested at the scene has since been released on bail.

In a tribute, Aflie's mother said: "He was the best friend to everyone, losing him has left our family broken."

The teenager's mother said: "Everyone who knew him would always tell me that I had the best boy, he knew how very proud I was of him.

"We had so much planned this year, he loved gaming and motorbikes and had already started saving up to buy his first bike.

"I will forever be lost without him."

Police have appealed for anyone with information about the incident, including dashcam, doorbell or CCTV footage, to get in touch.
