A 16-year-old girl died in a three-car collision on the motorway.

Sarah Cain, a 16-year-old schoolgirl, passed away in the hospital on Saturday after being involved in a three-car pile-up. The heartbreaking news has devastated her family, who have released a statement through the police paying tribute to their "beautiful" daughter. This tragedy occurred on the A1 in West Yorkshire last week, and the circumstances surrounding it are still under investigation.

According to the police, the incident took place on Thursday at 12:30 pm on the southbound carriageway near junction 41. Reports of a pile-up led emergency services to the scene, where they found that a Citroen C5 and a Kia Niro had collided on lane two. The two vehicles then ended up in the first lane, where the Kia, carrying Sarah, crashed into a Subaru Outback towing a caravan. As a result, the teenager sustained severe head injuries and was immediately taken to the hospital. Despite the best efforts of the medical team, she tragically passed away two days later.

The aftermath of this accident has also affected two others, who are currently still in the hospital. The driver of the Citroen C5 was arrested on suspicion of driving offences related to the incident. However, he has since been released on police bail while investigations continue. The family of Sarah has expressed their devastation and loss in a statement, saying that she was "irreplaceable" and will always hold a special place in their hearts.

The Yorkshire Ambulance Service was quick to respond, transporting three people to Leeds General Infirmary and treating three others at Pinderfields Hospital in Wakefield. The police are still appealing for any witnesses to come forward and provide any information that may assist in their investigation. DS Firth from the West Yorkshire Police acknowledged the seriousness of the collision and the tragic outcome, and urged the public to reach out with any relevant details.

The community has been deeply affected by this loss, and Yorkshire Police are encouraging people to follow The Agency on social media for updates on the case. They have also introduced a new feature where readers can receive daily push alerts directly on their devices. The police are hoping that this will help reach a wider audience and potentially provide valuable leads to aid in their investigations. Let us all keep Sarah and her loved ones in our thoughts during this difficult time.
