A delivery driver who was killed as he tried to stop a thief stealing his van has been described as a "beloved colleague and confidant".
He died after the suspect drove the Ford Transit away with the courier "partly inside" the passenger door, according to West Yorkshire Police. Police were called to Heights Drive at about 18:50 BST on Tuesday, to reports of a seriously injured man in the road. "Claudiu was a dedicated and cherished member of the SP Transport Group family who tragically lost his life on 20 August 2024 during a struggle that occurred in the midst of a van theft," he said.
