Ach,that's terrible.
Just when he was trying to rebuild his life too.
My condolences to his family

I don't live too far away from this but didn't hear about it so I am just seeing this now. To leave wartorn Syria, make the long journey across Europe with your family, end up in the UK to start a new life then to be killed at a badly designed junction? Tragic.
