The family of a man who died following a collision in Leigh last week have paid tribute to him.

James Kennedy, 47, was seriously injured when a car collided with him at around 8am on Thursday 1 May on Henry Street.

He was taken to hospital but sadly later died on 3 May. His family are being supported by specialist officers at this time.

The driver, a woman in her 50s, stopped at the scene and was arrested at the time on suspicion of causing injury by careless driving. She has since been bailed pending further enquiries.

Paying tribute to him, a family spokesperson said: “He was taken away from us too soon. James will be forever missed, but never forgotten.

“He was a loving son, brother, father and uncle. Forever in our hearts. Lots of love from all your family and friends. RIP James, till we meet again xx.”
