A person said it “all kicked off” on the night a car containing five teenagers crashed into a Cambridgeshire river. A teenage girl’s body has been recovered, while a man is still missing.

Emergency services were called to the crash in North Brink, Wisbech at around 8.20pm on Tuesday (March 17). A Volkswagen Polo had crashed into the River Nene along the road.

The body of Eden Bunn, 16, from Sutton Bridge in Lincolnshire, was found on Wednesday (March 18). Declan Berry, 18, from Wisbech, is still missing.

Three other teenagers, including two 16-year-old girls and an 18-year-old boy, managed to escape the car and were taken to hospital. One person who lives on North Brink, and asked to remain anonymous, told CambridgeshireLive about the night of the crash.

He said: “We saw fire engines on the night, but that’s all we saw. [But] that’s when it all kicked off.”

The man described North Brink as normally a “quiet road”. However, he added: “Except it’s [currently] being used as a diversion at the moment [for Barton Road]. It’s been manic down here since.”

Searches of the River Nene continued on Friday (March 20). Tributes have been paid to Eden and Declan at the crash scene, with flowers laid on the ground.

On Thursday (March 19), Eden’s family paid tribute to her. Her family described her as the “kindest” and “most loving girl”.

They added: “Her horses – Daisy and Dolly – were her world, and she was ours. Words cannot describe the tragedy that will stay with us until we are able to meet her again.”

Declan’s family said: “We are absolutely devastated beyond words and ask for privacy during this tragic time.”
