Sara Isabel Ribeiro, believed to be from Thetford, was sitting in the back of a black Mini One that came off the A11 in the early hours of Sunday morning.

The car was travelling southbound on the Hethersett bypass near Ketteringham when it collided with a tree.

Ms Riberio was pronounced dead at the scene and the driver, a woman in her 30s, was taken to Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge in a critical condition.

The two other passengers, a woman in her 20s and a man in his 30s, were taken to hospital for further treatment and are in a stable condition.

Emergency services, including two air ambulances and nine road ambulances, were called to the scene at around 5.30am.

The road remained closed for more than six hours as teams worked to make the scene safe.

Police are appealing to the public for anyone who may have witnessed the crash and in particular seen the manner of driving of the Mini before the incident.

Anyone who has any information or has relevant dashcam footage is asked to contact Norfolk Constabulary on 101 or via email at SCIU@norfolk.police.uk quoting CAD 69 of November 3.
