White House requests ‘urgent meeting’ with family of Harry Dunn

Updated

The White House has asked for an "urgent meeting" with the family of Harry Dunn.

A family spokeswoman said the 19-year-old's parents, Charlotte Charles and Tim Dunn, will head to Washington later today.

The teenager was killed when his motorbike was involved in a head-on collision outside RAF Croughton in Northamptonshire in August.

Anne Sacoolas, the motorist allegedly responsible for the crash, was given diplomatic immunity and allowed to return to the US after the crash.

The family travelled to America earlier this week and said they would be trying to convince President Donald Trump to reverse the decision.

In a post on the Justice 4 Harry GoFundMe page, the teenager's family said: "We will be meeting with various news channels to spread our campaign with all of America and ultimately hope that the American government see that it is right to send Anne Sacoolas back to the UK to face our justice system."
