A 16-year-old boy has died after he was struck by a police car in Birmingham.
Harry Kirkham was hit by the patrol vehicle as he crossed Sutton New Road in Erdington after leaving a church with friends at around 9pm on Wednesday.
West Midlands Police said the officer driving the Peugeot patrol car was not believed to have been answering an emergency call at the time of the collision.
The officer driving the vehicle, who is based in Sutton Coldfield, provided first aid at the scene.
He is said to be "traumatised" and is being questioned by members of his force's professional standards department.
Chief Inspector Neil Hobson said in a statement: "No parent should have to lose a child, particularly in such tragic circumstances.
"This evening our thoughts are with Harry's family following their tragic loss.
"As Harry was hit by a police car, West Midlands Police has informed the Independent Police Complaints Commission, who continue to be updated."
CCTV footage which may have captured the moment Harry was struck is being reviewed.
:: Anyone in the area at the time of the collision who has not contacted police should call officers on 101.
