More road-death victims named

FOUR victims of three fatal road accidents which happened on Oxfordshire's roads earlier this week have been identified.

Sidney Allen, of Lower Crescent, Minster Lovell, and James Martin, 62, of Ganarew, Monmouth, Wales, were both killed in a head-on smash on the A40 near Burford on Monday at about 8.30pm.

At 4.20pm the same day, a white Ford Transit van was involved in a collision with an 83-year-old woman pedestrian in Gravel Hill, Henley. She has since been named as Betty Bedford, of Gravel Hill, Henley.

The collision came just hours after a man was killed on the A420 near Tubney when the BMW in which he was travelling collided with a lorry at 10.40am. He has been identified as Omar Bazi, 30, of Banbury Road, Kidlington.
