The family of 27-year-old Kimberley Cameron from Aylesbury, who tragically died following a road traffic collision involving a police vehicle on Friday evening (16/4), have released the following tribute.

Thames Valley Police has made a mandatory referral to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) following a fatal road traffic collision.

Her family have said, “Kimberley was a very much loved daughter, sister, granddaughter, and niece. She was a truly remarkable, independent young woman, who, despite having Type 1 diabetes lived every day to the full and never let it define who she was."

Gold Commander for Thames Valley Police, Chief Superintendent Tim Metcalfe, said: “It is too early to speculate on the cause of the collision, but we have made a mandatory referral to the IOPC, and they will conduct a thorough investigation into the circumstances. Thames Valley Police is fully co-operating with this investigation and will continue to do so, and it would not be appropriate to comment further at this time.”
