A police watchdog has announced it is "urgently" reviewing two force's handling of a car crash which killed three people and injured two others.
Eve Smith, 21, Darcy Ross, 21, and Rafel Jeanne, 24, died in the accident while Sophie Russon, 20, and Shane Loughlin, 32, survived but remain in a critical condition. The group were in a Volkswagen Tiguan that came off the A48(M) in Cardiff and crashed into trees in the St Mellons area of the city.
A vigil is planned for 6pm today at the scene of the accident, according to posts on social media. It comes as Ms Russon is said to have laid semi-conscious in the wreckage, next to her deceased friends, while calling for help for two days, the Mirror reports.
Both South Wales Police and neighbouring force Gwent Police have referred themselves to the Independent Office of Police Conduct (IOPC) "in line with normal procedure". And in an update this morning, the IOPC said it is "urgently carrying out an assessment" of the referrals which were made yesterday.
As a probe into the tragedy continues, here are 10 key questions surrounding the fatal crash.
Ms Smith, Ms Ross and Ms Russon went by car to the Muffler nightclub in Newport, Wales, where they stayed until around 11.15pm on Friday night. They are thought to have then met Mr Jeanne and Mr Loughlin, and left in a white Volkswagen Tiguan.
Ms Russon's mum, Anna Certowicz, reportedly said her daughter hadn't known the two men before that night. A Snapchat post also showed Ms Ross and Mr Jeanne together just hours before the crash.
After leaving the nightclub, the group drove 36 miles to Trecco Bay caravan park in Porthcawl. It is not known exactly why they visited the site, but is is reported that Mr Loughlin's family has a caravan there.
