A young man has died and three people remain in hospital after a horror crash in Whitehawk.

A police patrol car saw a Mazda containing three men and two women, believed to be teenagers, being driven erratically in Bevendean, Brighton, at 1am on Saturday and signalled it to stop.

The driver did not respond and following a pursuit crashed into a brick wall in Wilson Avenue, Brighton, and careered through two gardens.

One of the men has died and another remains in a critical condition. All five were taken to the Royal Sussex County hospital, where one has since been discharged.

The Independent Police Complaints Commission(IPCC) has launched an independent investigation into the crash and has deployed two investigators to the scene.

IPCC commissioner Tom Davies said: "My condolences go to the family and friends of the dead man.

"This must have been a traumatic incident for everybody involved, including the members of the emergency services who attended.

"The IPCC investigation will be independent and proportionate."

Sussex Police has arrested the driver of the car.

Formal identification has not yet taken place.

if you play with fire you must expect to get burnt. i feel sorry for the people who have to deal with it.

When will the police learn that giving chase is not the answer - is a conviction worth a life? I don't think so. Back off cops.

Nice one Anna, let the criminals rule the streets. Are you a complete idiot? When someone makes the decision to drive off from police they take responsibility for their life and of those inside the car. The driver has to live with killing his mate. The whole disaster is his fault.

So Anna, you are quiet happy for an uninsured driver in a stolen car with out a license to drive down your roads / streets / around the marina at speed or erratically and possibly hit people. If you are willing to take that risk you are one in a million I think.

If these people have broken the law they deserved to be stopped and punished for there crimes. This is an unfortunate accident which I am sorry to read about but if the driver had stopped when requested this wouldn't have happened.

Just as a matter of point most illegal drugs and firearms are transported in stolen vehicles are you happy to let this movement go about unabeited?

If it's a passenger that has died I think the driver of the mazda should be done for manslaughter.

First of all it is a tragedy.That said'Anna' what a ridiculous thing to say. If police can't stop cars then there would be complete anarchy. What is the answer? Easy to say don't chase but the police do not know whay that car contains...if you don't let the police to stop cars more will get stolen, more will die and more criminals will transport stolen goods, drugs etc with complete confidence. I am NOT saying that is the case here but thgink about it before you make what you think is a politically correct comment.

Or alternatively, when will folks like these realise that doing a runner from the plod when they want a word isn't worth a life either?

Would you still hold your view if the people in the car had (for example) burgled your gaff or done over a close relative?

Tony Wares, Brighton says...

Of course my sympathy stays with the family's of those involved, however, the driver made a contious choice, to speed, drive dangerously AND ultematly not to stop for the persuing officers.

I hope this gives a stark reminder to everyone that running is not the best ploicy, as it lands you in the face of trouble evan further.

None of us were angels when we were young, but the differance is, most of us know right from wrong. I commend the police in what they do. You also have to remember that police persuit drivers are highly trained!! Criminals that drive off at speeds often have very little (if any) driver training.
If one thing is learnt from this, it's that young people realise that they are no longer invincible any longer and WILL end up paying for thier actions, weither it be by criminal convictions or with their lives.

A thanks to all invloved in the persuit and aftermath for keeping our country safe! WELL DONE!!

My thoughts are with the families of those people involved in the crash. If it is confirmed that they are from Whitehawk I am sure that the strong local community there will want to focus on supporting those families as they deal with what has happened. The Independent Police Complaints Commission are investigating what took place and everyone should await the outcome of that investigation before giving any further reaction.

At the end of the day the person who will have to brunt the biggest pain of all will be the driver of this sad and tragic accident. Yes I am afraid the police were right and I am sure that even the local residents would want this. But at the end of it some poor your man has lost his life and for what. May he rest in peace and lets not all get emotional about society which is easy to do and lets show our respects to the mans family who will now have a huge weight of sorrow.

I also feel for the police chasing as I know this will probably not be good for the relationship of the police and the estate but they were simply doing their job as if a car fails to stop then they have no choice but to pursue it.

Anyhow my sympathy goes out to ALL concerned as it cant be asy for anyone involved in dealing with it and thoughts are with you. God bless.

A conviction? No!

Stopping innocent people being killed as a result of this behaviour? Every time!

12:55pm Sat 9 Feb 08

If Anna did know the person that died,I feel she would say. Until the facts are known, it's very unfair to comment why the driver did'nt stop.I agree that the police are only doing their job, the driver should of stopped. The person who was driving, will have to live with this for the rest of his life. Lets also remember a young person has died,a family in pieces. Maybe there should be a police campain, stop and be question.Better than carrying on, and someone tragically losing their life.As society will keep on having incidents like this.

I'd like to know how old 'Anna' is. Is she more than, say, eight? If she is just a small child on the internet, she should be gently informed of why we have rules and laws. If she is over eight, I feel she puts a chill up my spine and clearly has no sense of where right and wrong begin and end. How does that happen or is it obvious?

Back off and be respectful? Of someone who could have killed entirely innocent people?

1:16pm Sat 9 Feb 08

If the police signal for you to stop you have a choice. I believe that 99% of people would pull over. Those that choose to bolt(why would you unless you had something to hide?) make that choice, it is not forced on them by anyone other than themselves. Often, as in this case, the price they pay is ruined lives..

Im fine. I just cant believe people are being this sdisrespectful. Everyone keeps saying 'Someone who could have killed inocent people' Matt was kill and he was inocent. Matt wasnt driving the car so MATT was no threat. The driver was. Just step back and think before you write things. How would you feel if it was your cousin, brother, uncle, son that had just died and people were debating it and being disrespectful. If you have nothing nice or respectful to say about Matt then dont say anything at all. Nothing anyone can say will bring him back. Whether it was right or wrong he is still gone. x

Mr Ras Putin. I agree with you (see previous comment). I think this site is fine for commenting and arguing. I just wonder is the argus website the best place for loving (and slightly badly spelt) condolences?

On another note... I bet that like me, you did not get up this morning thinking that you would **** off the whole of Whitehawk by the end of the day :)


common sense, hove says...
1:31pm Sat 9 Feb 08

Obviously my condolances go out to the families of those involved and my best wishes to those passengers still in hospital. My thoughts also go out to those officers involved. They will be feeling guilty as hell and made to feel like criminals themselves with the investigation when they were just doing their jobs. The person who should be held accountable is the driver. For his part, I hope he can live with the guilt but he must also receive a harsh sentance. I only hope this tragedy serves as a lesson to others who may steal cars, drink and drive, drive without a license or insurance or even just make off from police for the fun of it. All too often these incidents end with a loss of life.

Leon. How sad and small minded you are. Whitehawk? This could of happened anywhere hove etc. wondered how long it would take for that to rear its ugly head,from small minded bigots. It could of been anyones, son or daughter,in that car.
At the end of the day, a young person has had his life cut tragically short.
Until you live here then dont comment.
R.I.P Matt and my condolences to your family.

Non Whitehawk resident, Brighton says...
2:01pm Sat 9 Feb 08

Sorry Jade but the message board is for people who want to make comments about what happened and not a board for you to start a campaign where you are all grieving (or in your case, whining) for the loss of a loved one.

Some posts have acknowledged that the person that died was known and that the driver should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. I totally agree. The driver had no thought for his passengers at all did he? He probably thought he would look "cool" in front of the other idiots who got into the car with him. Selfish is what I would call that person. The driver thought that much about his/her passengers that he/she decided to run away from the wreck. How thoughtful of him/her. Obviously a caring, sensitive person......NOT

What about the poor officers who were following the vehicle before it crashed? They will have to live with the sight of the carnage caused by an idiot driver who thought it would be great fun to have a police car chasing them. The driver HAD the option to stop but failed to do so. Who is the sensible one here? And now every single action and word will be scrutinised by the IPCC and no doubt the Police will get slated for chasing a car and causing a death which is so wrong! The DRIVER of the car that failed to stop is the one that should be investigated and scutinised NOT the Police Officers who were trying to enforce the law.

But it will happen again. Some young idiot will think it's great to have the Police chase them so they can brag about it afterwards.

Will the driver of this crash be a hero to you Jade???

Angie, Brighton says...
2:08pm Sat 9 Feb 08

I have read all the comments and firstly I have to say that all I feel is sadness for all the pain that all the families are going to have to go through now. I will be thinking of you all and I send you my love. I am also concerned that people are making assumptions about what actually happened and I'd like to say that sometimes even nice people make mistakes. Lastly the driver of the car probably has a family too who love him. It is an assumption of mine but it appears that five young people were in a car as friends and they all had that choice of being in that car, please don't blame one person. Take care.

Roger, Hove says...
2:08pm Sat 9 Feb 08

Very sad! Reports say that Police will not formally identify the victim until next week, but from reading these comments, obviously it is someone called Matt.
Oh well, in life, we all learn from our mistakes. Trust the driver in question will "learn" from this.
Be interested to know if the deceased was the front seat passenger or one of three in the back?

Jade lovatt, whitehawk says...
2:08pm Sat 9 Feb 08

no ones saying that the driver is a hero what he did was dangerous and stupid but why should an innocent passenger be slated for it?? he's killed a friend and has to live with that for the rest of there life. the police should no when to back off they should no when to leave it they are partly yo blame aswell not just the driver!

Non Whitehawk resident, Brighton says...
2:15pm Sat 9 Feb 08

Jade why should the Police back off? The Driver was driving like an idiot and needed stopping. Would you be saying anything different if the Driver had knocked down a member of your family and killed them because they thought it was fun? I don't think so.

The Driver will have to live with this for the rest of their life but I doubt very much they will suffer for too long. Those klnd never do.

Until idiots like this learn the Police will continue to try and keep them within the law, although I doubt the driver really thought about that.

My thoughts are with the familiy of the person that died, but also with the Police Officers who will no doubt be traumatised by what happened in front of them.

i feel very sorry for all involved, especially those who have lost family, but if you choose to run away then you must accept any consequences of your actions. they must have had something to hide, or they would have stopped. please everyone, remember it isnt a game to be chased by the police, and you WILL end up hurting someone

Jade is'nt saying the driver is a hero, far from it. Matt was a passenager,and yes I agree,he and the other's got into that car.No one forced them. As I stated earlier, maybe the police can get their message across. Better to stop and be question, than someone losing their life. What ever the reason is.

Yeah right...the driver is no different to you or me....!

You mean to tell me that the Driver is not known to the Police and not known to the people of Whitehawk?? The Driver is perfect in every way and is a total Angel?? I don't think so do you?

They made a mistake?? Sheesh you are quick to pick up aren't you? The driver has not only killed one person and injured 3 other people, they have ruined the lives of families of the people involved and on top of that the people who have to deal with the carnage left behind. The Police, Ambulance Service and the Fire Fighters.

All normal people behave like that don't they? I wish I could live in your world...must be so colorful

No Lorraine, a 17 year-old male losing his life is the penaultimate line. The bottom line is, and ALWAYS WILL be in this case, is that some young person decided to try and outrun the Police. If he/she had NOT decided upon that course of action, then the 17 year-old boy (Matt ?) would NOT, repeat NOT, have been killed.
That is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. No-one can hide from that.
