Keen biker Jay Newby-Gallagher died after his Suzuki motorcycle and a blue Renault Zoe collided on Northway in Maghull at around 8.30am on Wednesday, May 14.

The crash happened outside the Aldi store at the junction of Dover Road. The 34-year-old, who was from the Maghull area, died at the scene.

The day after Jay's death, Merseyside Police announced that a 34-year-old woman from South Tyneside had been arrested on suspicion of causing death by careless driving. She was released on conditional bail.

Jay had been in a relationship with Kayleigh Newby-Gallagher for 15 years and the couple had been married for eight years.

Kayleigh, 32, from Maghull, said: “He was always so happy, always making people laugh.

“He just had this way of knowing what people found funny. He would do impressions of everyone. He used to gig in local bars around Liverpool - he was an acoustic solo singer.

“Everyone loved the Irish cover songs. We would sing them really quickly and everyone would be up singing and dancing.
