The tragic deaths of three teenagers in a devastating accident involving a bus and a car close to Heathrow Airport have been identified and shown in pictures for the first time as their families offer heartfelt tributes.

Harley Woods, aged 18, Star Tomkins, 17, and Jimmy Savory, 17, were passengers in a silver Mercedes that collided head-on with an H26 service heading to Hatton Cross at 11.55 pm on Monday, March 31.

Witnesses said the front of the bus erupted into flames and was ‘like a fireball’, which set the car alight following the devastating impact.

The three teenagers lost their lives at the scene near a railway bridge in Bedfont Road, Feltham, while a second female in the car was later hospitalized.

And pictures of all three have now been released as the devastated families and friends cope with the immense losses.

While police investigate the incident, a GoFundMe page has been set up to raise funds for Star’s funeral, alongside a collage of photos of the ‘beloved’ teenager.

The families of Harley and Jimmy have also taken to social media to share their grief.

A statement on Star’s fundraiser reads: ‘It is with very heavy hearts that we share the unexpected passing of Star Tomkins, who passed away on the 1st of April 2025.
