The medical cause of death of a man who was killed in a High Wycombe car crash has been determined to be a ‘trauma and fire injury’, the opening of an inquest has heard.

Kristof Csaba Csillag, who was born in Hungary but lived in the United Kingdom, was one of two people who lost their lives in an incident that involved three vehicles along Daws Hill Lane on the evening of Thursday, July 24.

During the inquest opening at Beaconsfield Coroner’s Court on December 1 it was revealed that Mr Csillag, 20, was confirmed dead at 9.14 pm after being identified by Thames Valley Ambulance staff members via DNA testing.

A pre-inquest into his passing is due to take place on December 10 for the former sales associate who lived along Middle Way in the town at the time of his death.

The crash also resulted in the death of 19-year-old Sameer Ali Akhter.

The young adult was taken to the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford for treatment, but died a day later.

The hearing for Mr Akhter occurred on September 25, which lasted for roughly five minutes.

At around 7.40 pm on July 24, the emergency services were called to the Daws Hill Lane/Kennedy Avenue junction in High Wycombe following reports of a crash.

It has been confirmed that three cars were involved; a black Audi, a grey VW Polo and a Honda Jazz.

Those close by to the scene of the incident reported hearing an 'explosion'.

In a video shared on social media, firefighters can be seen battling a car fire while another vehicle lies on its side nearby.

Emergency services quickly cordoned off the scene, where onlookers could see firefighters battling a car fire in the centre of the roundabout.

A 21-year-old man and a 20-year-old man, both from High Wycombe, were arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving following the incident on July 24.

The 20-year-old was bailed until October 16, while the 21-year-old has been bailed until October 21.

On social media, community members have sent condolences to the families.

Catherine Oliver said: "So incredibly sad.
