Three teenagers have died in a horror crash and a fourth is fighting for his life in hospital, as police hunt for a red Vauxhall Corsa and a black VW Golf they are thought to have been travelling alongside. Emergency services were called after a silver Audi A1 crashed on Offoxey Road, in Tong, near Shifnal, Shropshire, at around 11.15pm on Friday. Simon Evans, 18, from Perton in Wolverhampton, was pronounced dead at the scene while Jacob Holeman, 17, from Codsall, Staffordshire, was taken to hospital but died from his injuries on Saturday. Jenson Bridges, 17, from Brewood, Staffordshire, also died from his injuries on Sunday. A fourth teenager, also 17, suffered life-changing injuries and remains in hospital in a stable condition. Tributes have flooded in for tragic Jenson, with friends describing the 17-year-old as a 'beautiful young man'. Relatives called him the 'most loving, kindest, gentle soul', saying that his death 'far too soon' has caused 'unimaginable hearbreak'. Police are now looking for the owners of a red Vauxhall Corsa and a black VW Golf. The vehicles were not involved in the crash, but were travelling with the Audi before the drive took a fatal turn. Inspector Steph Arrowsmith, from the force's Serious Collision Investigation Team, said: 'Sadly, three teenagers have died and one remains in hospital with life-changing injuries in this tragic incident and our thoughts are with all of those who have been affected. 'We continue to carry out enquiries into the collision and I would like to thank everybody who has contacted us so far with information to assist with our investigation. 'We are still appealing to anyone else who may have been on Offoxey Road on Friday night to get in contact. 'We are also keen to hear from anyone who may have been travelling through Bishops Wood and Brewood around 11pm, as we believe the Audi travelled along Port Lane and Kiddemore Green Road ahead of the incident. 'We believe the Audi was travelling together with a red Vauxhall Corsa and a black VW Golf. 'The vehicles were not involved in the collision in any way, but we're hoping motorists in the area may remember seeing the three vehicles together.' Anyone with information or dashcam footage is asked to contact DC Rich Owen on 07814773916 or email SCIUNorth@westmercia.police.uk quoting incident number 554i of March 14.
