Boys who died on camping trip remembered at Shrewsbury Town match

A minute's applause has been held ahead of a Shrewsbury Town match to remember four teenagers who died in north Wales.

Jevon Hirst, Harvey Owen, Wilf Fitchett, and Hugo Morris were found on Tuesday in a silver Ford Fiesta which appeared to have come off the road on the A4085 in Garreg, near Tremadog, Gwynedd.

A major search had been launched after the boys went missing following a camping trip.

More than £14,000 has also been raised on an online fundraiser set up to support the boys' families.
