An off-duty police officer has died after she was struck by a lorry while helping at the scene of an earlier crash.PC Rosie Prior, 45, had stopped to help Ryan Welford, 41, from Knaresborough, and was standing on the verge of the A19 at Bagby in North Yorkshire, when they were hit by a lorry at 08:55 GMT on Saturday.
They died at the scene. A teenage boy who was a passenger in Mr Welford's car is in a serious but stable condition in hospital.A 65-year-old lorry driver from Berwick-upon-Tweed, Northumberland, was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving and has been released under investigation.Paying tribute to PC Prior, North Yorkshire Police Chief Constable Tim Forber said she "epitomises the very best of British policing".
Ms Prior joined the force as a student officer in May 2022.Her family described her as "a loving mum, wife, daughter, sister, aunty and will be deeply missed".
Mr Welford's family said he was a "hard-working and loving father, husband, son and brother".
"He will be greatly missed by his family and friends," they said.Initially, Tate presented himself as charming, but Ms Stern alleges that his behaviour quickly turned demeaning and threatening.
According to her claims, he referred to her as his "property" and subjected her to verbal abuse, calling her an "idiot", among other names.She described one incident in the Beverly Hills hotel in which he allegedly beat, choked and then threatened to kill her while they were having sex - an encounter that she says began as consensual.
"Tate began verbally degrading [the] Plaintiff as he routinely did - but this time it was much worse, more aggressive, and more violent," the lawsuit states.Ms Stern said in the complaint that he struck her in her face and head, and she cried for him to stop - alleging at one point the pressure on her neck nearly made her lose consciousness.
