A 16-year-old girl who died in a country lane crash alongside a 17-year-old boy has been named as Chloe Naylor.

Chloe tragically died alongside teenager Adam when the car they were in 'swerved off the road' in a fatal collision in Kent, killing them both and leaving a third occupant, a 16-year-old girl, in hospital. 

Emergency services were called to reports that a car had left the carriageway on Old Ferry Road at Iwade, near Sittingbourne, at around 8.30pm on Saturday, January 3. 

The two teens in the blue Ford Fiesta were later pronounced dead while a 16-year-old girl was rushed to hospital but has since been discharged. 

Their friends and family are now raising funds for their funerals, as they paid tribute to the teenagers in touching posts online. 

A friend of the family set up a GoFundMe for Chloe's funeral, writing: 'You may have heard about the tragic death of my daughter’s best friend, Chloe on Saturday, January 3, in a fatal car accident. 

'Chloe was just 16 years old. Chloe’s mum, Donna, has been a good friend to me over the years, helping me when I was in hospital and as many of you know she has a heart of gold.

'I am therefore creating a go fund me page as Donna would like to have a horse and carriage at Chloe’s funeral so Chloe can go as a princess.'
