An 11-year-old boy killed in a hit-and-run collision was an “intelligent, loving and caring kid”, his family has said. Taylor Schofield was treated by paramedics at the scene of the incident in Beswick, Manchester, but died of his injuries in hospital. Taylor’s family issued a photograph of the youngster pictured on his first day at secondary school.
