”Lauren was such a wonderful girl - always smiling and happy,” wrote one friend.

“I have such fond memories of her that I will treasure forever. She will be so greatly missed by all that knew her.”

Another said: “Lauren was so beautiful inside and out. This is heartbreaking to hear.”

Lauren was found inside her car just after midnight on Thursday.

Officers were called to the scene after hearing a vehicle had been found off the road on the A11 southbound.

Police began a collision investigation and discovered a second vehicle – a Jaguar – had been involved. This vehicle was then traced and recovered by police.

A 63-year-old man from the Brandon area was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving, drink driving, and failing to stop following a road traffic collision.

He was taken to Bury St Edmund’s Police Investigation Centre for questioning and has been released on bail until May next year pending further enquiries.

Anyone who was travelling along the A11 between Red Lodge and Barton Mills, from between 10pm and midnight on Thursday 10 November, who has any information relating to this collision, is asked to contact the Serious Collision Investigation Team on 101 quoting CAD 2 of 11 November.
