Paying tribute to him on the page, Katie Dragota said: "If you had Mircea in your life, you were a lucky person.

"He had so much kindness to give.

"He helped countless people and he never once asked for anything in return.

"He was a fun loving, out going, bubbly young man.

"Mircea has left a space in so many hearts that can never be replaced."

The driver of the car, a man in his 20s, was arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving, theft of a motor vehicle, driving without insurance or a licence and being unfit to drive through drink or drugs.
