Grandmother killed in crash in Bulgaria
A grandmother from Ilkeston and an 11-year-old boy have been killed in a car crash in Bulgaria.
Gerry McLeod, 54, and Paul McLeod were involved in an accident in Varna, a holiday resort on the Black Sea, Friday evening.
A Bulgarian woman, aged 76, is also believed to have been killed, while Paul's schoolfriend, Dillon Shaw, 10, has been hospitalised.
According to local media the car was hit by a bus and it is thought Ms McLeod was driving at the time.
A spokeswoman for the Foreign Office said that the family's next of kin have been informed and consular assistance has been offered to them.
