Police have made a fresh appeal for witnesses after a man was killed in a freak road accident.
Kent Police have returned to the scene of the car crash where Michael Baker, 47, of Granville Road, Littlehampton, was killed when the recovery lorry he was a passenger in was forced off the road after a stone hit the windscreen.
The recovery truck ploughed into the back of a stationary lorry near the Swanley Interchange in Kent on Saturday.
Three boys, aged 10, 12, and 15, and a 13-year-old girl have been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter.
A mobile police station has been set up at a Kent estate in the hope more witnesses will come forward.
Chief Inspector Adrian Futers said: 'It is our duty to the loved ones of Michael Baker to find out how and why he died."
Father-of-four Mr Baker, his partner Sheila Bright and her pregnant daughter Paige, 17, had been on their way to visit friends in Sidcup, Kent, when they were involved in an accident on the M25.
Ms Bright and Paige were taken to hospital and Mr Baker rode in the recovery truck.
He suffered serious injuries in the crash and later died in hospital.
