Tributes have been made to a father and son who died in a Christmas Day car crash.
Nigerian Adesola Olusoga, 32, and his three year-old son Isaiah were tragically killed in a single vehicle collision on the A421 on Christmas Day.
Emergency services attended around 11:10pm but found Adesola, of Kempston, Beds., dead at the scene.
Isaiah was airlifted to Addenbrooke’s hospital but was pronounced dead shortly after.
In a statement the family said: “Adesola was a loving brother, son and partner and doted on his son.
“The whole family had enjoyed a lovely day together before this tragedy which has destroyed our family.
“Isaiah was completely adored by all of his family. He was a beautiful boy who brought a smile to many faces.
“Words can’t described how much they will be missed.”
The mother of Isaiah, who was also in the car when it crashed between Marsh Keys and Marston, Beds., was taken to hospital where she remains in a serious but stable condition.
