An 18-year-old pedestrian who died in hospital eight days after being hit by a van in Dumfries and Galloway has been named by police.

David Bark was hit by a white Ford Transit van on the A75 near Carsluith at about 22:15 on Friday 18 April.

Mr Bark was taken to hospital and later transferred to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow where he died on Saturday.
