Tributes have poured in for a mother and her young daughter who died after they were involved in a horror crash with an Audi TT while on their way to nursery.

Justyne Hulboj, 27, and four-year-old Lena Czepczor were killed while walking on the pavement just moments before the white Audi collided with the wall of the Vertu Jaguar Leeds car dealership on Scott Hall Road, Leeds. 

West Yorkshire Police said they were hit by the car - which had been travelling in convoy with a grey BMW 135i - prior to it colliding with the building.

Three people have now been arrested in connection with the incident, as devastated family and friends shared their memories of the pair.
