6/13/09: Family’s tribute to young cyclist killed in Olton crash

THE DEVASTATED parents of a teenage cyclist killed in a collision today paid tribute to their son.

Brendon Lee Harrison, aged 13, was returning home from Lyndon School when his bicycle collided with a car in Pierce Avenue, Olton, on Wednesday afternoon.

Paramedics took the schoolboy to Birmingham Children’s Hospital with serious head and leg injuries but doctors were unable to save him.

Parents Michelle and William, from Acock’s Green, found out about the accident after searching for their son when he did not get home at the usual time.

They said: “We are devastated by Brendon’s untimely passing. He leaves a hole in our hearts and his brothers’ and sisters’ lives which can never be filled.”
