Craig’s family have paid the following tribute to him,
“Craig lived his life to the full, always on some sort of crazy rollercoaster, always ups and downs, some would say he was more than a pain most of the time, but on the other hand he had a heart of gold too and would do anything for anyone.
He always kept saying his life was a blessing. Craig was quite like marmite; you either loved him or hated him at the same time.’
He was very much loved and cherished.
He always played the joker and wanted to create laughter if not with words he would do some silly voice or some silly face to make you smile.
The family would like to thank all the members of the public that came to the aid of Craig and tried to help, your efforts haven’t gone unnoticed.
“Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened, rest easy up their Craig.”
Officers are continuing to investigate the incident and would like anyone with any dashcam footage to come forward quoting reference 2600360991.
