IT is now a week since the sad incident near the Merrywalks multi-storey car park in Stroud which has led to an outpouring of support from the whole community to the family and loved ones affected.

An inquest yesterday, Thursday, was told that the young man involved was George Holloway, 18, from Painswick.

George was found with serious injuries around 10.20pm on Saturday and despite medical attention sadly died at the scene.

The inquest was adjourned until Thursday, March 8.

The SNJ would very much like to compile an article to celebrate George’s life – if anyone would like to share their memories please email Eddie at ebi@stroudnewsandjournal, call 01453 769423, leave a message below or contact us via our Facebook page at facebook.com/stroudnews

We understand George had previously attended Thomas Keble School.

Once again our sincere condolences go out to all his loved ones at this time.
