A family has paid tribute to a "sensitive, kind and caring" teenager as an inquest opened into his death in a road collision.

Aiden Bailey, 18, was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash near his home at Snettisham.

It happened while he was riding his motorcycle on the A149 near the Snettisham roundabout at around 5.10 pm on Sunday, August 6.

His family said: “Aiden was such a sensitive, kind, caring, loving, funny son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin, boyfriend and friend to so many.

"Always putting everyone else before himself. Words can’t begin to express the loss and sadness we all feel that he has been taken so young.”
