(35 minutes later) | |
A man has admitted killing three teenage boys who he crashed into as they walked to a birthday party. | |
Jaynesh Chudasama, who had been drinking, lost control of his car while trying to overtake another vehicle at, prosecutors told the Old Bailey. | |
Harry Rice, 17, and 16-year-olds George Wilkinson and Josh McGuinness, died after he hit them on their way to a football centre in Hayes, west London. | |
Chudasama, 28, admitted three counts of causing death by dangerous driving. | |
The defendant, from Hayes, is due to be sentenced on 9 March. | |
Prosecutor Crispin Aylett QC said it was estimated Chudasama was more than two-and-a-half times the legal limit for driving at the time of the crash in Shepiston Lane, on 26 January. | |
"In the course of over-taking another vehicle, the defendant... lost control of his car," Mr Aylett said. | |
"The vehicle struck and fatally injured three boys who were walking along the pavement." | |
The victims, who have been described as "incredible" and popular by their friends and families, were among a group of friends walking towards the Goals five-a-side football club, when they were fatally injured at around 20:40 GMT. |
