FOLLOWING a tipper truck crash in which four people died in Bath the driver of the truck has been named as 19-year-old Philip Potter from Dauntsey.
Four people, including four-year-old Mitzi Steady, died in the accident at 4pm on Monday and her grandmother remains critically ill in hospital.
Three men from South Wales were also killed in the tragedy - Robert Parker, 59, from Cwmbran, Phillip Allen, 52, from Swansea and the two men's driver Stephen Vaughan, 34, from Swansea.
Witnesses have told police the truck driver appeared to be trying to avert an accident and was repeatedly sounding his horn.
Avon and Somerset Police have spoken to the driver, who sustained minor injuries, in hospital and will interview him fully at a later stage.
Speaking earlier this week, Chief Inspector Norman Pascal said: "This is a tragic incident in which three men and a young girl have lost their lives and we're carrying out a full and meticulous investigation."
