Father Pat Smith lights a candle for Sean Hamilton at The Church of Our Lady, in Gale Lane, Acomb
HUNDREDS of messages, dozens of floral displays and candles lit in memory formed York’s tribute to schoolboy Sean Hamilton, killed in a hit-and-run crash.
Among those paying tribute was Father Pat Smith, of The Church of Our Lady, in Acomb, who joined pupils and staff at Sean’s school to light a candle for the Foxwood boy.
An inquest opened yesterday into Sean’s death revealed how he died from multiple injuries after being dragged “some distance” down Holgate Road.
