A trial date has been set for a teenager charged with causing death by dangerous driving after a fatal crash on the A64 last year.

Andrew Tock, 19, of Thornton-le-Dale, will appear before a judge at York Crown Court on November 12.

Tock was charged with two counts of death by dangerous driving in March after 15-year-old Becki Atkinson and 17-year-old Tom Leng died in the accident last October.

The accident happened at Golden Hill, a notorious blackspot on the A64.
