A seven-year-old boy has died after being struck by a car in Nottinghamshire.

Police were called to a collision between a car and a child along the A38 Kings Mill Road East, near Kingfisher Way, in Sutton-in-Ashfield at 8.26pm on Tuesday, 10 March.

Logan's mother said in a tribute: "In memory of a boy who will remain seven forever. Always unconditionally loved and cherished, you will never, ever be forgotten."

She described him as "the most beautiful, happy and mischievous special boy" who was "full of love, light and adventure... my little superhero who loved to play and make us laugh".

"From your cheeky grin, your giggles, dancing and singing to making figures with your arts and crafts whilst eating your favourite snacks... you will forever echo through my soul."

She added: "We will miss you so much. Rest my super angel. Your memory will live on forever. This is not goodbye but a 'see you soon'. Love from mum and family."
